A method, medium, and system to receive an indication of an assembly including a plurality of different components to produce by additive manufacturing (AM), determine based on a forward search process that starts with individual components of the plurality of components and iteratively adds other components of the plurality of components thereto in combinations until an entirety of the assembly is accounted for, determine based on a reverse search process that starts with the entirety of the assembly and iteratively removes components of the plurality of components therefrom in combinations until a two-component set is reached, automatically select an optimal combination of the plurality of components from the combinations determined by the forward search and reverse search processes; and transmit the selection of the optimal combination of the plurality of components to an AM controller.

A production method of a modeled object includes a fixing step of fixing a thermally expandable sheet onto a tray by entirely or partially fixing a periphery of the thermally expandable sheet placed on the tray by a fixing member; a thermally expanding step of thermally expanding partially the thermally expandable sheet, which is in a state of being fixed onto the tray by the fixing step, by being heated by irradiating the thermally expandable sheet with light by an irradiation unit, while moving the irradiation unit from a first position toward a second position unit; and cooling the thermally expandable sheet, which has been thermally expanded partially by the thermally expanding step, while maintaining the state in which the thermally expandable sheet is fixed onto the tray, while returning the irradiation unit from the second position to the first position.

A moulding installation and method for moulding food products from a pumpable foodstuff mass are described. A revolving mould drum is provided with multiple mould cavities and a mass feed member is arranged at a fill position to transfer foodstuff mass into passing mould cavities. The foodstuff mass forms a food product in the mould cavity. A pressurized air food product ejection system includes air ducts in the mould drum that extend to the cavities and at least a portion of the surface delimiting a mould cavity is air permeable. The ejection system further includes a pressurized air source to feed pressurized air at a regulated ejection air pressure thereof to the air ducts. A controller is adapted to input at least one target parameter related to filling of the mould cavities with the foodstuff mass via the mouth of the mass feed member. The controller is adapted to automatically set an ejection air pressure by the pressurized air source on the basis of the inputted target parameter.

The present invention provides an imprint method of forming a pattern of an imprint material on a substrate using a mold, comprising: performing preliminary curing in which the imprint material is cured to a first target hardness by irradiating the imprint material with first light, in order to execute alignment between the mold and the substrate; and performing, after the alignment, main curing in which the imprint material is cured to a second target hardness by irradiating the imprint material with second light, wherein before performing the preliminary curing, an irradiation light amount of the first light to be used in the preliminary curing is determined based on a curing time until the imprint material is cured to the first target hardness, the curing time being obtained by irradiating an imprint material with third light.

An imprint apparatus that forms a pattern of an imprint material on a substrate by using a mold comprising: at least one processor or circuit configured to function as a holding unit configured to hold the mold; an actuator configured to apply a force to a side surface of the mold held by the holding unit; wherein the holding unit includes a first mechanism that is able to hold the mold and is capable of limiting a motion of the mold in a direction in which the actuator applies the force; wherein the holding unit includes a second mechanism that is different from the first mechanism and that is able to hold the mold while allowing the motion of the mold in the direction in which the actuator applies the force.

A procedure for repairing a polymer matrix composite component is provided. The procedure includes the steps of: providing a polymer matrix composite component having a site prepared for repair by removal of damaged or defective material; locating an uncured, polymer matrix composite repair patch at the site to re-build the component thereat; and curing the polymer matrix of the repair patch by heating the patch using eddy currents induced by one or more alternating current coils. The repair patch is without metallic additives, such that the repaired polymer matrix composite after the curing step is also without metallic additives in the vicinity of the repair patch.
