Abstract
In one example, a fusing system for an additive manufacturing machine includes a first carriage carrying a layering device and a fusing lamp, and a second carriage carrying a fusing agent dispenser. The first carriage and the second carriage are movable back and forth over the work area along the same line of motion so that the first carriage follows the second carriage in one direction and the second carriage follows the first carriage in the other direction.
