Electrostatic polymer aerosol deposition and fusing of solid particles for three-dimensional printing

An additive manufacturing process includes creating an aerosol from a powder at a spray generator, charging the aerosol to produce a charged aerosol having a first charge, forming a blanket charge on a deposition surface having a second charge with an opposite polarity from the first charge, selecti...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An additive manufacturing process includes creating an aerosol from a powder at a spray generator, charging the aerosol to produce a charged aerosol having a first charge, forming a blanket charge on a deposition surface having a second charge with an opposite polarity from the first charge, selectively removing regions of the blanket charge, leaving charged regions on the deposition surface, and transporting the charged aerosol to the charged regions to form structures on the charged regions from the charged aerosol.
