==CLOSED LOOP PRINT PROCESS ADJUSTMENT BASED ON REAL TIME FEEDBACK - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240042682 titled 'CLOSED LOOP PRINT PROCESS ADJUSTMENT BASED ON REAL TIME FEEDBACK

==Simplified Explanation==

The techniques described in this patent application relate to photoreactive 3D printing systems and methods. The 3D printing system includes a movable print platform, a resin tub with a membrane, resin contained within the tub, an illumination system, a force sensor, and a print recipe for building layers of a 3D printed part on the print platform.

* The photoreactive 3D printing system projects an image through the membrane into the resin volume using the illumination system.
* The print platform can move in the z-direction.
* The force sensor measures the force on the print platform.
* The print recipe is updated during a printing run based on the force on the print platform.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Rapid prototyping: The photoreactive 3D printing system allows for the quick and precise creation of prototypes, enabling faster product development cycles.
* Custom manufacturing: This technology can be used to produce customized products with complex geometries, such as personalized medical implants or unique consumer goods.
* Art and design: Artists and designers can utilize this technology to create intricate and detailed 3D printed sculptures and artworks.

Problems solved by this technology:

* Improved print quality: The ability to measure and adjust the force on the print platform during printing helps to ensure accurate and high-quality 3D printed parts.
* Enhanced printing speed: The movable print platform and updated print recipe allow for faster printing times, increasing overall productivity.
* Reduced material waste: The precise control over the printing process minimizes material waste, making the photoreactive 3D printing system more efficient and cost-effective.

Benefits of this technology:

* Versatility: The system can accommodate various resin materials and can be used to print a wide range of objects with different shapes and sizes.
* Accuracy: The ability to measure and adjust the force on the print platform ensures precise and accurate printing, resulting in high-quality finished products.
* Efficiency: The movable print platform and updated print recipe optimize the printing process, reducing printing time and material waste.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

in some embodiments, the techniques described herein relate to photoreactive 3d printing systems and methods. the 3d printing system can include: a moveable print platform; a resin tub with a membrane; resin contained within the resin tub; an illumination system; a force sensor, and a print recipe including information for layers in a 3d printed part to be built on the print platform. the photoreactive 3d printing system can be configured to: project an image through the membrane into the volume of resin using the illumination system; move the print platform in a z-direction; measure a force on the print platform using the force sensor, and update a print platform movement in the print recipe during a printing run based on the force on the print platform.
