Abstract:
An additive manufacturing system includes a platen, a dispenser configured to deliver a powder in a linear region that extends across less than all of a width of the platen, a drive system configured to move the dispenser along the first axis and a perpendicular second axis, a controller, and an energy source configured to selectively fuse a layer of powder. The controller is configured to cause the drive system to move the dispenser along the second axis a first time such that the linear region makes a first sweep along the second axis to deposit the powder in a first swath over the platen, thereafter along the first axis, and thereafter along the second axis a second time such that the first linear region makes a second sweep along the second axis to deposit the powder in a parallel second swath over the platen.

Claim (Index 42):
The system of  claim 34 , wherein the dispenser includes a plurality of openings for powder to flow from a reservoir onto the platen, the plurality of openings extending along the first axis, and a plurality of independently controllable gates to independently control flow of the powder through the plurality of openings.
