发明名称 THREE-DIMENSIONAL PRINTING APPARATUS
摘要 A three-dimensional printing apparatus including a swing tank containing a liquid formation material, a swing mechanism, an elevating platform, a light source and a control unit is provided. The swing tank includes a pivot side and a swing side adapted to be swung about the pivot side. The swing mechanism includes a cam and a driving motor. The cam leans against the swing side for swinging the same. The elevating platform and the light source are respectively disposed above and below the swing tank. The control unit controls the elevating platform to immerge into the liquid formation material. The light source cures the liquid formation material between the elevating platform and the bottom of the swing tank. The control unit then controls the swing mechanism to swing the swing side, so the cured liquid formation material is separated from the bottom and located on the elevating platform.
