Abstract: A method for the accurate formation of a three-dimensional article comprises providing a supply of substantially uniform size droplets of a desired material wherein each droplet has a positive or negative charge. The supply of droplets is focused or aligned into a narrow stream by passing the droplets through or adjacent an alignment mechanism which repels each droplet toward an axis extending through the alignment mechanism. The droplets are deposited in a predetermined pattern at a predetermined rate onto a target to form the three-dimensional article without the use of a mold of the shape of the three-dimensional article.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for the formation of a three-dimensional article by forming uniform droplets of like charge. The supply of droplets is focused into a narrow stream by passing through an alignment means. The droplets are deposited in a predetermined pattern at a predetermined rate onto a target to form the article without using a mold. A supply of support material is provided adjacent the desired material for support.

Abstract: Se presenta un método y aparato para la formacion de un artículo tridimensional (60) mediante la formacion de pequeñas gotas uniformes de carga similar. El suministro (12) de pequeñas gotas (36) se enfoca en una corriente angosta mediante el paso a través de un dispositivo de alineacion (30). Las pequeñas gotas se depositan en un patron predeterminado a una velocidad predeterminada sobre un blanco para formar un artículo sin emplear molde. Un suministro (13) de material de soporte (36) se proporciona adyacente al material deseado para soporte.

Abstract: Se presenta un método y aparato para la formacion precisa de un artículo tridimensional. Un artículo tridimensional (38) se forma mediante el suministro de pequeñas gotas (36) de un material, y dichas pequeñas gotas presentan un tamaño y carga uniforme. El suministro de las pequeñas gotas es enfocado en una corriente angosta mediante el paso a través de un dispositivo de alineacion (30) o bien adyacente a dicho dispositivo de alineacion. Las pequeñas gotas se depositan sobre un blanco para formar el artículo tridimensional (38) sin el uso de un molde.
