Abstract: In example implementations, an apparatus includes a storage unit, an auger screw, a housing enclosing the auger screw and at least one heater coupled to the housing. The auger screw receives a build material from the storage unit and delivers the build material to a build platform via movement of the auger screw. The build material is heated by the at least one heater as the build material is being moved by the auger screw.

Abstract: A material management apparatus for an additive manufacturing system comprises a build material supply system to supply build material to a building area for building an object by additive manufacturing. The build material supply system includes a first build material supply unit to supply build material from a first side of a building area and a second build material supply unit to supply build material from a second side of the building area, the second side opposing the first side. The material management apparatus also includes a controller to control the build material supply system to vary an amount of build material to be supplied via the first build material supply unit based on a detected difference between a first amount of material available for supply via the first build material supply unit and a second amount of material available for supply via the second build material supply unit.

Abstract: In example implementations, an apparatus includes a build platform and a cap. The build platform has an opening on a top surface to fill a build material storage unit. The cap is inserted into the opening to seal the opening. A top surface of the cap and the top surface of the build platform have a uniform thermal conductivity when the cap is inserted into the opening.

Abstract: In one example, a rotatable delivery module is controlled to rotate in a first direction to a supply position to enable material to be supplied to an additive manufacturing platform. During such rotation to the supply position the rotatable delivery module contacts and collects respective portions of said material contained by the material supply module. An amount of material within the material supply module is determined based on a resistive force exerted on the rotatable delivery module as the rotatable delivery module collects said respective portions of material.
