Abstract
A method is described for producing a metal object by 3D printing with by progressively building the object by material deposition by depositing superimposed layers of metal, wherein a quantity of metal, e.g. molten, is deposited on a previously printed portion of the object, and while a new layer is being deposited, forcibly regulating a flow of heat coming from the object.
Claims19
Method for producing a metal object by 3D printing with the steps of
- progressively building the object by material deposition by depositing superimposed layers of metal,
- wherein a quantity of metal, e.g. molten, is deposited on a previously printed portion of the object, and
- while a new layer is being deposited, forcibly regulating a flow of heat dissipated by newly deposited metal and/or by a zone of previously deposited metal so as to determine a time trend for the temperature during the cooling of the newly deposited metal and/or in said zone.
