Abstract
A nozzle for additive manufacturing having a body having a thermally conductive material, a front side opposite a back side, a first side opposite a second side, the first side and the second side connected to and between the front side and the back side. The nozzle further has a top end opposite an extrusion end, and the body tapers at the extrusion end to a nozzle opening. A first conduit extends through the body from an opening in the top end to the nozzle opening in the extrusion end. A heater conduit, adjacent to the first conduit, extends from a heater opening in the top end and into the body towards the extrusion end and a sensor conduit, adjacent to the first conduit, extends from a sensor opening in the top end and into body towards the extrusion end.
