Zusammenfassung: | An extruder system (100) for additive manufacturing is disclosed. The extruder system comprises: a heatable elongated barrel (24) having a nozzle (12) at a tip (122) thereof; and an extrusion screw (20) mounted coaxially and rotatably in the barrel, such that upon rotation of the screw in the barrel an additive manufacturing building material is advanced in the barrel towards the tip; the screw having therein an axial bore (11) configured for receiving at least one elongated mechanical member (13) for controllably varying at least one of an amount and a type of material extruded through the nozzle. |
