Application: Accumalator assembly for additive manufacturing (Patent ID: US20240100774A1)

The patent filed by General Electric Co. describes an additive manufacturing apparatus that includes a feed module, a take-up module, a stage for holding cured resin layers, a radiant energy device, an actuator, and an accumulator for retaining an intermediate portion of the foil. The apparatus also includes a detection system for monitoring conditions of the accumulator or the foil within it, with a computing system to analyze the data provided by the detection system.

The additive manufacturing apparatus is designed to efficiently produce components by controlling the movement of the foil through the feed and take-up modules. The accumulator allows for different speeds of movement for different portions of the foil, enhancing the manufacturing process. The detection system and computing system work together to monitor and analyze various conditions related to the foil and the accumulator, ensuring smooth operation and high-quality output. Additionally, the inclusion of a reclamation system further enhances the efficiency of the apparatus by removing resin from the foil.
