Abstract
A method of manufacturing a modeled body includes: modeling including applying a modeling solution to each layer of powder laid in a layer, to solidify the powder to model a solidified object; sintering the solidified object to obtain a sintered body of the solidified object; and removing a sacrificial body from the sintered body, to obtain a modeled body. At the modeling, the modeling solution is applied to a modeled body area in the solidified object and a border area in the solidified object such that, after the modeling solution is applied, a density of the powder at the border area is smaller than a density of the powder in the modeled body area. The modeled body area corresponds to the modeled body. The border area corresponds to a border between the modeled body and the sacrificial body.
