1. A device for producing three-dimensional models, comprising:
- a coater having an ejection opening for layer-wise depositing a particulate material on a build surface having an incline; and
at least one print head;
wherein the print head is mounted on an inclined print axis,wherein the coater deposits the particulate material only while the coater moves in a coating direction up an incline in advance of the print head,the ejection opening of the coater being disposed toward the top in the coating direction, andthe print head prints on the deposited layer of the particulate material only after reaching a top region of the incline until reaching a bottom region of the incline, while moving in advance of the coater.

21. A device for producing three-dimensional models, comprising:
-
a coater having an ejection opening for layer-wise depositing a particulate material on a build surface having an incline; and at least one print head; wherein the print head is mounted on a print head positioning axis that travels on an inclined print axis, wherein the coater is mounted on a coater axis orthogonal to the inclined print axis and deposits the particulate material only while the coater moves in a coating direction up the inclined print axis, the ejection opening of the coater being disposed toward the top in the coating direction, and the print head prints on the deposited layer of the particulate material only after reaching a top of the incline until reaching a bottom of the incline; wherein the ejection opening and the print head have opposite orientations with the election opening oriented above the coater axis in an inclined direction and the print head oriented below the print head positioning axis in the inclined direction.
