Three-dimensional shaping apparatus

Abstract

A three-dimensional shaping apparatus is configured including: a plasticizing unit configured to plasticize at least a part of a shaping material containing a thermoplastic resin to generate a plasticized material; a fiber material supply unit configured to supply a fiber material; a nozzle configured to discharge the plasticized material and the fiber material toward a stage; and an ultrasonic wave applying unit configured to apply ultrasonic waves to at least one of the plasticized material and the fiber material discharged from the nozzle. The nozzle includes a first flow channel that is a flow channel for the plasticized material, and a second flow channel that is a flow channel for the fiber material. The second flow channel is surrounded by the first flow channel as viewed from a lamination direction of a shaped object.
