![]() This and other known efforts at 3D printing of food rely on a substantial modification of the core printing technology to extrude the food material.Ĭonventional 3D printers use a spool of filament. ![]() A heating device adjusts the temperature of the material contained in the capsules based on the parameters and properties associated with the food materials, and the materials are extruded therefrom in an additive process. 27, 2014 shows a 3D printer 3D printer system in which different food materials are contained in respective capsules, and the 3D printer system auto-determines the contents of each capsule. For example, PCT application number PCT/US2014/039170 published Nov. ![]() There have been attempts to adapt 3D printer technology for the printing of foods. However, they have the potential to completely transform the way we make many mainstream products and to impact numerous major industries. 3D printers are especially well-suited for making precision prototypes, in a wide range of materials. ![]() 3D printers and accessories are currently being sold at consumer focused retail stores such as Best Buy® and Lowes®, which stands as evidence that 3D printers may become mass-market products in the very near future.ģD printers are now capable of making three-dimensional objects of almost any shape through an additive process in which successive layers of material are laid down under computer control. Indeed, the 3D printer and services market was worth 52.2 billion in 2012 and is growing at 29% annually. No longer constrained to high end fabrication shops, there is an expanding consumer demand for 3D printers. Description of the BackgroundģD Printing is a fast growing industry with a bright future. The present invention relates generally to 3D printing, and more specifically, to an edible water-soluble polymer 3D priming filament. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention 6, 2015 which in turn derives priority, from U.S. ![]() The present application is a division of U.S. CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION(S) ![]()
