DEVICE FOR THE ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL OBJECTS FROM POWDERY CONSTRUCTION MATERIAL

摘要

A device for the additive manufacturing of three-dimensional objects from powdery construction material by introducing radiation energy, in particular a laser sintering and/or laser melting device, comprising at least one housing having a process chamber, in which process chamber a construction space or an exchangeable container having a vertically movable construction platform is arranged, to which construction platform the powdery construction material provided for solidification by radiation energy can be applied, characterized by a memory chip, which can be removed from the process chamber of the device with the exchangeable container and/or the constructed object and which can be read out by an electronic reading device and on which production data, which belong to the additive manufacturing process, and/or subsequent processing steps and/or processing stations for automatically controlling processing apparatuses and/or transport paths and/or storage positions and/or data from controlling active elements of the exchangeable container itself are stored.

主权项

1. A device (1) for the additive manufacturing of three-dimensional objects (2) from powdery building material (3) by introducing radiation energy, in particular a laser sintering and/or laser melting device, comprising at least one housing (4) with a process chamber (5), in which a building space or an exchangeable container (6) is arranged, with a height-adjustable building platform to which the powdery building material (3) intended for solidifying by means of radiation energy can be applied, characterized by
a memory chip (16), which can be removed with the exchangeable container (6) and/or the built object (2) from the process chamber (5) of the device (1), can be read by means of an electronic reading device (15) and has stored on it manufacturing data belonging to the additive manufacturing process and/or subsequent processing steps and/or processing stations for automatically controlling items of processing equipment (7-11) and/or transporting paths (12) and/or storage positions (8), and/or data for controlling active elements of the exchangeable container itself.
