1. A method for producing three-dimensional objects based on computer-provided data comprising:
- depositing a material in layers in a process chamber;
selectively solidifying and/or bonding the materials using a bonding apparatus and/or a solidifying apparatus in the process chamber; and
repeating the steps of depositing and solidifying and/or bonding;
wherein a conveyance of the material proceeds during the build process and proceeds continuously, sequentially, and evenly up to an unpacking position.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for producing three-dimensional objects based on computer-provided data, whereby a material is deposited in layers in a process chamber and the material is selectively solidified and/or bonded using a bonding apparatus and/or a solidifying apparatus in the process chamber, these steps being repeated. A conveyance of the material proceeds during the build process and proceeds continuously, sequentially and evenly up to an unpacking position.

14. A method for continuously producing three-dimensional objects comprising:
-
using computer-provided data, depositing a material on a movable material reception means, forming an object or multiple objects by repeatedly applying layers of the material on one side of the object or multiple objects; subsequently solidifying and/or binding of the material; and repeating the steps, wherein the object or objects on the material reception means are continuously moved out of a process area during the production process and unpacked on the material reception means during the production process. - View Dependent Claims (15)
