Abstract
A modelling head for a three-dimensional printing machine, comprising a base body having a work surface suitable for enabling the formation and adhesion of an object, a support device connected to said base body and a movement member for moving said base body, wherein the support device is adjustable so as to change the orientation of the base body and in particular of the work surface relative to the movement member and is configured to switch, in an automated manner, from an unlocked configuration, in which it allows a change in the orientation of the base body relative to the movement member, and a locked configuration in which it locks the configuration assumed by the base body relative to the movement member.
