Abstract
Devices, systems, and methods are directed to adjusting a pneumatic circuit associated with pneumatic ejection of liquid metal from a nozzle as the nozzle moves along a controlled three-dimensional pattern to fabricate a three-dimensional object. The adjustment of the pneumatic circuit can facilitate adjusting a pressure profile within the nozzle as pressurized gas moves through the nozzle to eject, through pneumatic force, liquid metal from the nozzle. Through adjustment of the pneumatic circuit, characteristics of the liquid metal (e.g., size, shape, and flow rate) can be controlled to facilitate control over fabrication of the three-dimensional object.
