| Summary: | Apparatus for manufacturing a three-dimensional object by solidifying a powdery constituent material layer by layer at the positions corresponding to the profile of the object to be manufactured in the corresponding layer, by the action of a laser or another energy source comprises a support on which the object is formed and an applicator for applying a layer of the constituent material onto the support or a layer at least partially solidified in advance. The applicator has a receiving device for receiving a applying module such as a blade module. The receiving device is formed in a way so that the applying module can be exchangeably inserted into and removed from the receiving device in a way that a predetermined position of the applying module in the receiving device is reproducibly determined. |
