Abstract:
1. A particulate material production apparatus comprising: a droplet ejector to eject droplets of a particulate material composition liquid or a melted particulate material composition in a droplet ejection direction from nozzles located on a droplet ejection surface of the droplet ejector; a solidifying device to solidify the droplets ejected by the droplet ejector; a first airflow forming device to form a first airflow to feed the droplets ejected by the droplet ejector to the solidifying device with the first airflow, wherein a traveling direction of the first airflow is substantially perpendicular to the droplet ejection direction; and a second airflow forming device to form a second airflow to apply the second airflow to the droplets before the droplets are fed by the first airflow, wherein the second airflow forming device forms the second airflow by supplying a pressed gas from a slit.
