Abstract
The present invention relates to a device for manufacture of three-dimensional models by means of a 3D printing process, whereby the build material is deposited on a build platform in layers and the build platform is moveable in the Z-direction and one or several drive units and one or several guide elements is/are provided to move the build platform. In so doing, drive units and guiding elements are arranged in such a way that a movement of the drive units is decoupled from the movement of the guiding elements.

12. A device for manufacture of three-dimensional models by means of a 3D printing process comprising:
-
a) a build platform so that build material is deposited on the build platform in layers and wherein the build platform is moveable in a Z-direction, b) one or several drive units, c) one or several guide elements capable of moving in the vertical direction and generally free of translational movement in a horizontal direction, d) a first platform driven vertically by the one or several drive units, wherein the first platform is capable of moving horizontally relative to the one or several guide elements; and e) a second platform positioned above the first platform, vertically supported by the first platform and connected to the one or several guiding elements, wherein the first platform is capable of moving horizontally relative to the second platform; wherein the build platform is connected to the second platform; wherein the one or several drive units and one or several guide elements are arranged so that transvers movement of the one or several drive units is/are decoupled from the one or several guide elements. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
