Patentansökan, 2021

An additive manufacturing system capable of large-scale production. The additive manufacturing system comprises a pulsed laser arranged to emit coherent light towards a rotating reflecting element, wherein the rotating reflecting element is arranged to reflect a laser pulse towards a plurality of light-redirecting elements. Each light-redirecting element is further arranged to receive and redirect the laser pulse towards a work surface which may be based on one or more conveyor-belts. The raw material on the belt, such as a metal-based material for additive manufacturing, is supplied continuously to enable a ceaseless production line.
