Patent ID: 8888480

Claim:
A three-dimensional printing equipment assembly comprising: a) a three-dimensional printing build system comprising: a conveyor system adapted to conduct plural build modules; the plural build modules engaged with the conveyor system, wherein the plural build modules are adapted to receive and temporarily retain powder from a powder layering system; and at least one build station comprising: 1) at least one powder layering system adapted to form incremental powder layers within the plural build modules; and 2) at least one printing system adapted to apply a liquid according to a predetermined pattern to incremental powder layers within the plural build modules; wherein the conveyor system comprises plural attachments adapted to removeably retain the plural build modules, and the attachment comprises at least one metal link with cam followers or comprises wheels, plates and/or bearings attached to a build module and mounted on a rail system upon which the build module is conducted, and the conveyor system repeatedly transports the plural build modules from the at least one powder layering system to the at least one printing system to form a three-dimensionally printed bed comprising one or more three-dimensionally printed articles in the plural build modules; and the equipment assembly excludes a printing system adapted to apply liquid to the powder according to a polar coordinate algorithm.
