The present invention concerns an apparatus for 3D printing of bottom-up photo-curing type, comprising a light source (26) above which a tank (10) containing a photo-curing liquid material (24) is placed inside which it is immersed an extraction plate (25), which is equipped with moving means with alternating rectilinear motion, along a direction perpendicular to the bottom of said tank (10) from a position at a distance from the bottom of said tank (10) equal to the thickness of a layer obtainable by photo-curing of said photo-curing liquid material (24), the bottom (14) of said tank (10) being constituted by an elastic membrane (23) transparent to the radiation of said light source (26), said tank (10) being positioned in correspondence with a hole (13) of a support plate (12), said hole being provided with a rigid support (11), transparent to the radiation of said light source (26), wherein said rigid support (11) is provided with means for displacing with respect to said hole (13), from a position in which said rigid support (11) occupies said hole (13), and is in contact with elastic membrane (23), to a position in which said rigid support (11) deviates from said hole (13) and from said elastic membrane (23), characterised in that between said elastic membrane (23) and said rigid support (11) means are placed apt to increase adherence between said elastic membrane (23) and said rigid support (11).
The invention additionally concerns a method of use of said apparatus for 3D printing.
