ABSTRACT:
An electrostatic three-dimensional printer in which molten material drops such as plastic and wax are given an electrostatic charge, and accelerated through a guiding magnetic field. Just as an electron is accelerated and guided in a cathode ray tube. Any molten material may be used. Parts are created by the build up of multiple layers of these droplets. When parts have overhangs a second removable material is used. In the case of plastic a lower melting point wax could be used to support the overhanging plastic then later removed from the part by melting.
