Three-dimensional shaped article production method
A three-dimensional shaped article production method is a three-dimensional shaped article production method for producing a three-dimensional shaped article by stacking layers and includes a first metal powder supply step of supplying a first metal powder having a first average particle diameter to a shaping table, a layer formation step of forming the layer by compressing the first metal powder supplied to the shaping table, a first liquid supply step of supplying a first liquid containing a binder and a second metal powder having a second average particle diameter that is an average particle diameter 1/10 or more and ½ or less the first average particle diameter to at least a portion of a constituent region of the three-dimensional shaped article, a second liquid supply step of supplying a second liquid that contains a binder, but does not contain a metal powder to at least a portion of a surface layer region in the constituent region, and a sintering step of sintering a metal in the constituent region by heating a stacked body.
1. A three-dimensional shaped article production method for producing a three-dimensional shaped article by stacking layers, comprising:
a first metal powder supply step of supplying a first metal powder having a first average particle diameter to a shaping table;
a layer formation step of forming the layer by compressing the first metal powder supplied to the shaping table;
a first liquid supply step of supplying a first liquid to at least a portion of a constituent region of the three-dimensional shaped article in the layer, the first liquid containing a binder and a second metal powder, the second metal powder having a second average particle diameter that is 1/10 or more and ½ or less of the first average particle diameter;
a second liquid supply step of supplying a second liquid that contains a binder, but does not contain a metal powder to at least a portion of a surface layer region in the constituent region, the second liquid supply step being performed after the first liquid supply step; and
a sintering step of sintering a metal in the constituent region by heating a stacked body of the layers.
2. The three-dimensional shaped article production method according to claim 1 , wherein in the second liquid supply step, the second liquid is supplied to the entire surface layer region.
3. The three-dimensional shaped article production method according to claim 1 , wherein the first liquid and the second liquid are supplied to an internal region other than the surface layer region in the constituent region.
4. The three-dimensional shaped article production method according to claim 3 , wherein the first liquid and the second liquid are alternately supplied to the internal region at every layer.
5. The three-dimensional shaped article production method according to claim 1 , wherein the first liquid is supplied to an internal region other than the surface layer region in the constituent region without supplying the second liquid.
