Stereolithographic coating techniques including utilization of balanced applicators that are paused and/or slowed over selected portions of previously formed laminae. Alternatively, the balanced applicator may be swept more times over selected portions of previously formed laminae than over unselected portions. The selected portions may include trapped volume regions existing on previously formed laminae. The balanced applicator may be made to sweep more slowly when exiting a trapped volume region than when entering it. Paused, slowed, or back and forth sweeping may be utilized to ensure proper coating formation in trapped volume regions by ensuring adequate transfer of material into the trapped volume region and/or adequate transfer out of the trapped volume region, or alternatively by ensuring that undesired transfer of material out of the trapped volume is minimized or is otherwise accommodated for. |
