Patent GB-2583795-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in or relating to additive manufacturing
Inventor: STEVE WOOD
IPC: B33Y50/02
Filed: 2019-10-31
Abstract: A method of additive manufacture, particularly fused deposition modelling, an object comprises a plurality of travel move steps, wherein each travel move step is constrained to follow a travel path that does not pass through an inside region of the object. During printing, an extruder must sometimes stop extruding and move to another point on the model – for example when the printer completes a layer, stops extruding and moves to the start point of the next layer – this is known as a travel move; these sometimes cause stringing, or ooze of excess material or whisps and bobbles resulting in defects on the part. The method of the invention ensures that no defects are formed on the inner surface of the object which may be a prosthetic limb socket, a generally tubular object, or a wearable part; ensuring travel moves do not pass through the inside, or only pass outboard of the object, restricts any defects or artefacts to surfaces not in contact with the wearer preventing discomfort. Preferably, each travel path is chosen to minimise the length of travel and is created such that the nozzle moves radially out, around a circle, then radially inwards to the end point. An object, wearable and prosthetic limb formed by the method are included.
