DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING A LAYER OF POWDER MATERIAL

摘要

A device (100) for processing a layer (M) of powder material, comprising a slidable transport surface (106) adapted to support and advance the layer (M) of powder material, a compacting station (115) adapted to compact the layer (M) of powder material while it advances on the transport surface (106), and means (200) for trimming the lateral edges of the layer (M) of powder material upstream of the compacting station (115).
