Abstract
The present invention relates to an exchangeable additive manufacturing machine system. The system includes a manufacturing spindle; a thermal conducting module configured to include a working well in a center portion, wherein the manufacturing spindle is configured to rotate in the working well and the manufacturing spindle and the working well defines a manufacturing region; and a capillary based functional liquid releasing module configured on the thermal conducting module to release a functional liquid to one of a first gap, a second gap and a third gap included between the thermal conducting module and the manufacturing platform.
Claims9
An exchangeable additive manufacturing machine system, comprising:
- a thermal conducting module;
- a manufacturing platform and a plurality of flat additive manufacturing assembly components, wherein the plurality of flat additive manufacturing assembly components are selectively attached to a center portion of the thermal conducting module to form a working well, the manufacturing platform is selectively configured in the working well and moves along the working well and the manufacturing platform and the working well define a manufacturing region;
- a manufacturing spindle and a plurality of curve additive manufacturing assembly components, wherein the plurality of curve additive manufacturing assembly components are selectively attached to the center portion of the thermal conducting module to form the working well, the manufacturing spindle is selectively configured to rotate in the working well and the manufacturing spindle and the working well define the manufacturing region;
- and
- a capillary based functional liquid releasing module, configured to attach on at least the thermal conducting module to release a functional liquid into a gap comprised between the thermal conducting module and the manufacturing platform or one of a first gap, a second gap and a third gap comprised between the thermal conducting module and the manufacturing spindle,
- wherein the exchangeable additive manufacturing machine system is formed as a three-dimensional additive manufacturing machine by selectively configuring with the manufacturing platform and the plurality of flat additive manufacturing assembly components or a rotary additive manufacturing machine by selectively configuring with the manufacturing spindle and the plurality of curve additive manufacturing assembly components.
