Abstract
An additive manufacturing apparatus includes a table, an ejecting unit that faces the table and ejects photocurable droplets toward the table, a light-applying unit that applies light to and cures the droplets on the table, a moving unit that moves the table back and forth along with the light-applying unit and relative to the ejecting unit, and a controller that controls the ejecting unit, the light-applying unit, and the moving unit such that the ejecting unit ejects droplets toward the table while the table is moved relative to the ejecting unit; the light-applying unit applies, when a direction of relative movement of the table is changed, light to the droplets that have moved together with the table out of an area where the table faces the ejecting unit; and a three-dimensional object is formed as a stack of layers composed of the droplets that have been cured.
