Manufacturing Enclosures TRIZ Cases
- Dual Build Material Supply System for Additive Manufacturing
A dual build material supply system coordinates two independent application devices to maintain continuous feedstock delivery during additive manufacturing.
- Additive Manufacturing Material Replenishment System
A single transporter conveys excess powder to a sieve positioned above the chamber, reducing device complexity and maintenance labor.
- Movable Protection Element for Additive Manufacturing Windows
A movable transparent protection element shields additive manufacturing windows from contamination, preventing fogging and reducing cleaning frequency.
- 3D Printing Tank Asymmetry for Resin Flow
An asymmetric tank layout positions the holder rearward to create a dedicated resin reservoir area, preventing degraded resin accumulation in the curing zone.
- 3D Printed Catheter Multi-Plane Articulation via Offset Pull Wire
Offset pull wires in 3D printed catheters resolve manufacturing complexity limits to enable consistent three-dimensional shape formation.
- Conductive Build Material Source Container for 3D Printing
A conductive build material source container provides an electrostatic discharge path to ground.
- On-Demand Colorization for Extrusion-Based Additive Construction
Peristaltic pumps deliver liquid dye into a mixing chamber to color a single filament, eliminating manual switching and reducing printing time.
- Compactor for Continuous Composite Manufacturing
A compactor integrates with an additive print head to compress composite material using a spring-loaded wheel and adjustable piston.
- Flow-Induced Fiber Alignment in SLA Composites
Flow fields align glass fibers in resin tanks to resolve UV opacity and void formation, achieving injection-molded strength.
- Multi-material Powder Bed Fusion with Segmented Chambers
Multi-material powder bed fusion system manages thermal conditions via segmented chambers and a universal recoater to minimize cross-contamination.
- Build Material Container with Deformable Shell for Powder Flow
Deformable shells and pneumatic channels in build material containers prevent powder compaction, ensuring continuous supply for additive manufacturing.
- Hanging Gantry Guide System for 3D Printing Accessibility
A suspended ceiling gantry guides additive manufacturing components to clear the lower build chamber area.
- 3D Printer Cartridge System for Material Recycling
Separating unused powder into a dedicated recycle cartridge reduces waste and contamination while maintaining simple device structure.
- Gravity-fed Liquid Delivery System for 3D Printing
A vented sub-tank moves liquid material to a nozzle array via gravity flow.
