Abstract:
An apparatus for a rotational material scattering additive manufacturing device, the apparatus includes a base with a first protruding pin for mounting a first drum, where the first drum includes a first set of nozzle actuators configured to control a release of particle material through a first set of nozzles positioned on an outer edge of the first drum. The apparatus also includes the first drum configured to rotate about a central axis of the first protruding pin, wherein a rotational motor assembly is configured to rotate the first protruding pin. The apparatus also includes a microcontroller configured to control the first set of nozzle actuators and the rotational motor assembly.
