METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PRODUCING THREE-DIMENSIONALLY MOLDED ARTICLE, AND THE THREE-DIMENSIONALLY MOLDE ARTICLE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To accurately reproduce the gradation properties of surface color of a cubic model becoming the base of a three-dimensionally molded article in the case of producing the same by laminating a plurality of colored sheets. ;SOLUTION: A coloring region 40 is specified on a transparent sheet 1 in accordance with the shapes of respective sections of a cubic model. All faces of the whole area of the coloring region 40 are covered with a toner layer 56 of white and thereafter toner layers 52 of three primary colors in which toners of three primary colors are spatially applied to gradation distribution, are imparted to form a coloring layer 50 of a structure with two layers. Or, the coloring layer 50 of a structure with one layer in which the apertures in dots 52 of toner of three primary colors are burried by toner W of white, is formed. Therefore, since light L is not transmitted through the transparent sheet 1 in the coloring region 40, gradation properties and color tone properties in representation of surface color of a laminate are raised.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2000,JPO
