Integrated manufacturing of REciclable multi-material COmposites for the TRANSport sector
APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR PRINTING THREE DIMENSIONAL OBJECTS
3D printing apparatus and methods involving a reservoir configured to store at least one photopolymer material for printing three-dimensional objects, a material dispensing head in fluid connection with the reservoir, one or more peristaltic pump(s) controlling transport of material from the reservoir to the material dispensing head, a control system controlling operation of the peristaltic pump(s), and a radiation source for curing the material. Pulsatility of the flow output from said peristaltic pump(s) is smoothed using a compensation procedure.
