Abstract

The invention relates to an apparatus for producing an object by means of additive manufacturing, comprising a process chamber for receiving a bath of material which can be solidified by exposure to electromagnetic radiation; a support for positioning the object in relation to the surface level of the bath of material; and a solidifying device for solidifying a selective layer-part of the material on the surface level by means of electromagnetic radiation. Furthermore optical control device is provided with a focus unit in an optical pathway of the electromagnetic radiation of the solidifying device, and arranged for controlling at least the focus of the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the solidifying device on the surface level. According to the invention, the optical control device comprises a sensor element arranged for detecting a measure for the accuracy of the focus of the electromagnetic radiation and a focus correction lens element that is arranged to be movable. By moving said focus correction lens element, focus may be corrected, for example due to thermal behaviour of the optical system.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing an object from a material by means of additive manufacturing using a plurality of solidifying devices for solidifying said material in stacked layers by means of electromagnetic radiation. Said method comprises the step of defining, by a data processing unit, at least two solidifying device allocations. In each of said solidifying device allocations said plurality of solidifying devices are allocated to respective parts of said layer such that said parts cover said layer. The method further comprises calculating, by said data processing unit, for each of said at least two solidifying device allocations, respective allocated part manufacturing times representing times for each of said plurality of solidifying devices for solidifying said respective allocated part of said layer, wherein said calculating takes into account an expected disturbance area from solidifying said material by one of said plurality of solidifying devices, wherein said disturbance area relates to at least an expected fume above said layer. The data processing unit then determines the manufacturing throughput time, and selects a definite allocation.

Abstract

The invention relates to an apparatus and method for producing an object by means of additive manufacturing. The apparatus comprises a process chamber for receiving a bath of material which can be solidified by exposure to electromagnetic radiation; a support for positioning the object in relation to the surface level of the bath of material; and a solidifying device for solidifying a layer of the material on the surface level by means of electromagnetic radiation. According to the invention, a registering device is provided for registering a characteristic of a calibration area related to the surface level of the bath of material. Furthermore, a control unit connected to the registering device is provided. The control unit is arranged for using the characteristic of the calibration area obtained by the registering device for controlling the position of the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the solidifying device.
