METHODS FOR PRODUCING THREE-DIMENSIONAL OBJECTS

A method of forming a three-dimensional object is described. The method may use a polymerizable liquid, or resin, useful for the production by additive manufacturing of a three-dimensional object, comprising a mixture of (i) a light polymerizable liquid first component, and (ii) a second solidifiable component that is different from said first component.

Processing systems with a plurality of supply reservoirs

An example processing system for processing a part includes: a processing chamber to hold the part to be processed; a plurality of supply reservoir to contain respective processing fluids; an injection system fluidly coupled to the plurality of supply reservoirs; and a controller operatively coupled to the injection system, the controller to: based on the part to be processed, select a processing sequence for processing the part; and control the injection system to execute the selected processing sequence; wherein the processing sequence is selected from: (i) injecting, sequentially, a first volume of a first processing fluid and a second volume of a second processing fluid; and (ii) combining a third volume of a third processing fluid and a fourth volume of a fourth processing fluid to form a combined processing fluid and injecting the combined processing fluid into the processing chamber.
