Liquid ejection apparatus and liquid ejection method

Abstract

A liquid ejection apparatus includes a liquid ejection head, a shape tracking apparatus, a measurement apparatus, and a correction apparatus. The liquid ejection head is configured to eject liquid to a target object. The shape tracking apparatus is configured to control a position and an angle of the liquid ejection head relative to a surface of the target object, and move the liquid ejection head relative to the surface of the target object. The measurement apparatus is configured to measure a movement state of the liquid ejection head by the shape tracking apparatus. The correction apparatus holds the liquid ejection head, and is configured to prevent oscillation of the liquid ejection head based on a measurement result by the measurement apparatus, the oscillation occurring when the shape tracking apparatus moves the liquid ejection head.
