Abstract

See full text

A device and a method are described for feeding a material layer onto a construction platform, or onto at least one material layer located on the construction platform, for producing an object, which is mounted to linearly move relative to a material reservoir and the construction platform along a motion plane. A circulating band is stretched around at least two molded bodies and contacts the molded bodies at least in segments. A drive circulates the band around the at least two bodies. The band has a band segment which can be fixedly in position relative to at least one body in the longitudinal section around the at least two molded bodies. At least the segments contact the material stored in the material reservoir during the linear motion from the material reservoir to the construction platform so that at least a part of the material is stripped off from the material reservoir and is applied as the material layer to the construction platform to compress the material layer.
