THREE-DIMENSIONAL MODELING APPARATUS AND THREE-DIMENSIONAL MODELING METHOD

To model a high-quality three-dimensional object without correcting data of the three-dimensional object.SOLUTION: A three-dimensional modeling apparatus 1 for modeling a three-dimensional object O by depositing layers comprises: a modeling table 11 on which the three-dimensional object O and an object Q for quality control are modeled; a jetting unit 10 for jetting a modeling material 19 of the three-dimensional object O and the object Q for quality control; a moving mechanism 22 for relatively moving the modeling table 11 and the jetting unit 10; monitoring units 21 and 24 for monitoring a modeling state of the object Q for quality control; and a controller 23 for controlling the jetting unit 10, the moving mechanism 22, and the monitoring units 21 and 24 to perform layer formation. The jetting unit 10 jets the modeling material in a state in which the solid modeling material 19 is heated and plasticized onto the modeling table 11 on the basis of the control by the controller 23. The controller 23 performs layer formation on the basis of the monitoring result by the monitoring units 21 and 24.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】三次元造形物のデータを補正することなく高品質の三次元造形物を造形する。【解決手段】層を積層することにより三次元造形物Ｏを造形する三次元造形装置１であって、三次元造形物Ｏ及び品質管理用造形物Ｑが造形される造形台１１と、三次元造形物Ｏ及び品質管理用造形物Ｑの造形材料１９を噴射する噴射部１０と、造形台１１と噴射部１０とを相対的に移動させる移動機構２２と、品質管理用造形物Ｑの造形状態を監視する監視部２１及び２４と、噴射部１０、移動機構２２及び監視部２１及び２４を制御して層の形成を実行する制御部２３と、を備え、噴射部１０は、制御部２３の制御に基づいて、固形の造形材料１９を加熱して可塑化させた状態で造形台１１に噴射し、制御部２３は、監視部２１及び２４による監視結果に基づいて層の形成を実行する。【選択図】図１
