Apparatus and methods for fabricating components

This describes a 3D printing system for making objects from thermoplastic material. It features a nozzle that deposits the material onto a flat surface, and this nozzle has a specific design with two connected segments that can be precisely angled to control the deposition.

Why it matters: While filed recently, advancements in real-time control systems and AI for process optimization in additive manufacturing could now better leverage the precise, angled nozzle deposition to achieve smoother surfaces during printing.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedCustom nozzle, servomotor control, software logic
