Abstract: A lamination molding apparatus, including: a chamber covering a desired molding region and being filled with an inert gas of predetermined concentration; a molding table configured to be vertically controllable in the chamber; a laser beam emitter to irradiate a predetermined irradiation region with a laser beam to form a sintered layer and irradiate a predetermined target irradiation position with the laser beam to form a sintered trace, the irradiation region being disposed on a material powder layer formed on the molding table for each of a plurality of divided layers obtained by dividing a desired three-dimensional object at a predetermined thickness.

Abstract: A powder sintering lamination molding method which can improve the quality of the molded product without extending the time required for the lamination molding. A powder sintering lamination molding method, including the steps of, irradiating an irradiation region of the sliced layer of a molded product surrounded by an outline profile with a laser to selectively sinter the material powder of the material powder layer within the irradiation region; wherein a cooling period is provided after the laser is irradiated along the first line and before the laser is irradiated along the second line.
