Abstract

An additive manufacturing apparatus includes a build module. A feed module is configured to support a first portion of a resin support. The first portion of the resin support is supported by a feed mounting panel. A take-up module is configured to support a second portion of the resin support. The second portion of the resin support is supported by a take-up mounting panel and is positioned on an opposing side of the radiant energy device from the feed module. An adjustment assembly is configured to adjust a position of at least one of a feed mandrel within the feed module or a take-up mandrel within the take-up module.
