Abstract:
The present disclosure provides three-dimensional (3D) printing methods, apparatuses, systems and/or software to form one or more three-dimensional objects, some of which may be complex. The three-dimensional objects may be formed by three-dimensional printing using one or more methodologies. In some embodiments, the three-dimensional object may comprise an overhang portion, such as a cavity ceiling, with diminished deformation and/or auxiliary support structures.

Claim (Index 1):
A three-dimensional object, comprising:\n a plurality of layers of hard material that are stacked and bonded together to form a shape of the three-dimensional object, which plurality of layers of hardened material comprises: a core characterized as having a first microstructure comprising a first plurality of grains associated with being formed at a first solidification rate, and a skin portion coupled with the core, which skin portion comprises: (i) a second microstructure comprising a second plurality of grains associated with being formed at a second solidification rate that is different than the first solidification rate, and (ii) an exterior surface corresponding to at least a fraction of an exterior surface of the three-dimensional object.
