Abstract

See full text

An apparatus and a method for attracting and/or repelling byproducts in a build chamber of a powder-bed fusion system by one or more electrostatically charged plates. The method and apparatus may deliver material to the build chamber of the powder-bed fusion system by a material depositor. An energy beam source may generate an energy beam and apply the energy beam to the material such that the energy beam generates byproducts in the build chamber when applied to the material. One or more electrostatically charged plates are associated with one or more walls of the build chamber to attract and/or repel at least a portion of the byproducts in the build chamber such that the byproducts attached to the surface of the electrostatically charged plates and/or exit the build chamber without damaging a build piece or components of the powder-bed fusion system.
