Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An additive manufacturing apparatus includes first and second spaced apart side walls defining a build chamber therebetween. The first and second spaced apart side walls are configured to rotate through an angle θ, about a z-axis along a pre-defined path. A build platform is defined within the first and second spaced apart side walls and is configured to rotate through an angle θ about the z-axis and vertically moveable along the z-axis. The apparatus further includes one or more build units mounted for movement along the pre-defined path. An additive manufacturing method is additionally disclosed.
