Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:An additive manufacturing system for building three-dimensional objects, comprising a box-shaped build chamber (2) having a plurality of sides (4), and an x-y gantry (10) having mounted thereon a nozzle head assembly (12) for movement thereof relative to the build chamber (2). The additive manufacturing system (1) further comprises a plurality of roller units (14, 16) evenly arranged along a circumference (18) of one side of the plurality of sides (4), wherein each roller unit (14, 16) comprises a cover sheet (20, 22) rolled at least in part into coil form and wherein each cover sheet (20, 22) extends from the roller unit (14, 16) to the nozzle head assembly (12) for closing the build chamber (2) there between. Each roller unit (14, 16) is configured to allow the cover sheet (20, 22) to coil and uncoil in correspondence to the movement of the nozzle head assembly (12).
