Patent
Laser production of articles from powders
TL;DR: In this article, a controller comprised of a digital computer directs movement of a deposition zone along a tool path and provides control signals to adjust apparatus functions, such as the speed at which a deposition head which delivers the laser beam and powder to the deposition zone moves along the tool path.

Deposition head for laser
Gary K. Lewis,Richard M. Less +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a deposition head is used as a part of an apparatus for forming articles from materials in particulate form in which the materials are melted by a laser beam and deposited at points along a tool path to form an article of the desired shape and dimensions.
Patent
Controlled laser production of elongated articles from particulates
TL;DR: In this paper, it was discovered that wires and small diameter rods can be produced using laser deposition technology in a novel way, where an elongated article such as a wire or rod is constructed by melting and depositing particulate material into a deposition zone which has been designed to yield the desired article shape and dimensions.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a modular splitters for uniform flow of gas entrained powders to the nozzles of a directed light fabrication (DLF) system.
Patent
Deposition head for production of articles from powders
Gary K. Lewis,Richard M. Less +1 more
TL;DR: A deposition head for the production of articles from metal powder includes an optics package (201) and a delivery nozzle (241) which contains a laser beam passage (242), at least two oppositely disposed powder passages (230), upper, middle, and lower protective windows (202, 207, 209), a coolant channel (234), and upper and lower gas channels (231, 227) as discussed by the authors.
