Abstract:
For 3D printing green parts to be debound and sintered, a binder may be jetted into successive layers of sinterable powder feedstock to build up a 3D shape of a desired 3D green part, associated sintering supports, and an associated shrinking platform. A release material may be deposited to intervene between the 3D green parts and the sintering supports. A placeholder material may be deposited upon bound powder to form 2D layer shapes of placeholder material, and the sinterable powder feedstock refilled and leveled about the placeholder material. Upon debinding, internal cavities corresponding to the 3D shapes of the placeholder material are formed.

Claim (Index 14):
The method of  claim 1 , further comprising refilling the powder bed with new or recycled powder feedstock with each successive layer.
