1. A laminate shaping apparatus comprising:
- an ultraviolet-ray source that applies ultraviolet rays;
a model material ejecting unit that ejects an ultraviolet curable model material;
a support material ejecting unit that ejects an ultraviolet curable support material which assists shaping of a three-dimensional shaped product which is shaped by the model material;
a driving unit that drives at least one of the ultraviolet-ray source, the model material ejecting unit, and the support material ejecting unit, and a shaping stand on which the three-dimensional shaped product is shaped; and
a control unit that controls the model material ejecting unit, the ultraviolet-ray source, and the driving unit so that the model material is laminated on the shaping stand and is cured according to shaping data of the three-dimensional shaped product, and that controls the support material ejecting unit so that the support material is ejected on the three-dimensional shaped product to cause a height difference of the three-dimensional shaped product to be a predefined threshold value or smaller,wherein the height difference is a distance from a highest position to a lowest position of a recessed portion of the three-dimensional shaped product.
