Abstract
A shaping apparatus includes a table, at least one first discharging part that moves in one direction relative to the table and shapes an object by discharging droplets of a shaping liquid from nozzles and stacking plural layers each formed by curing the droplets, a second discharging part that moves in one direction relative to the table and forms a coating member coating an end surface of the object by discharging droplets of a coating liquid from nozzles and stacking plural layers each formed by curing the droplets, and a controller that controls the second discharging part so that a thickness of the coating member decreases toward an upper side.
