Companies are ever trying to get their hands on a new patent involving minute aspects of 3d printing (remember Amazon patent for 3d printing aboard delivery trucks?
However, Microsoft has just been awarded a patent for the step preceding 3d printing: making 3d printable digital models of objects, specifically after scanning.
But the implications of this patent go much further than 3d printing convenience, as Youtube the Patent Yogi explains in the video above.

#MASSIVIT 3d shows off GDP Gel Dispensing 3d printing technology by printing a Strati car Jun 26, 2015 By Alecgenerally speaking,
3d printers come in all shapes and sizes, though some stand out more than others. After all, not all 3d printers are large enough to build gigantic cement structures,
but most that are are unique experimental models not yet ready for marketing. However, one Israeli startup called MASSIVIT is working hard on a 3d printer that could bring large scale 3d printing to the massive.
And as their name suggests, their machine is truly huge. With a build space of. 5m x 1. 2m x 1. 8m (or 4ft x 5ft x 6ft
Envisioning a wide variety of applications, the Israeli developers have emphasized just its potential by 3d printing an entire car body in a single piece.
but has been founded by a group of industry veterans with years and years of experience in the 3d printing industry.
what they call the largest, fastest and most advanced large format 3d printing solution. And that claim is not just an ambitious statement,
as the Israeli engineers have developed actually a unique 3d printing technology. Called GDP 3d printing (short for Gel Dispensing Printing), they believe their upcoming 3d printers are capable of igniting a market explosion in the 3d printing industry and beyond it.
And by the face of it, that could really happen. t the heart of the GDP process is Massivit unique printing gel & smart support.
It may seem like the technology is the same as used in other filament-based 3d printing systems
but it is completely different. The GDP utilizes movement similar to what is used in FDM systems,
functioning as a Cartesian 3d printer, it just combines the advantages of resin 3d printing with FDM techniques.
This allows them to acquire a delicate balance between movement speed, curing, and the material properties of their ilament ll of these together enable the printing of relatively thick layers with linear movement of the dispensing
and curing engine at up to 1m per second, they say, which is of course an insane speed.
It opens the way to 3d printing much larger objects, from machine casings, to furniture and much more.
and the printer can be utilized at the same time to also print another object Perhaps printing Eve?,they speculate.
The material at the center of this new approach to 3d printing is MASSIVEIT gel, a UV sensitive polymer. he material is nonflammable,
and has good structural strength similar to ABS materials commonly used in 3d printing. The relatively low fluidity parameters of the gel create high advantages
This obviously opens the way to some serious large scale 3d printing as the Israeli engineers emphasize by 3d printing the body of a car.
As reported in Israeli media, they 3d printed the body of a Strati car by Local Motors, with a bit of help from design specialists from Autodesk.
which will be on display at Ecomotion, a gathering of people from the Smart Transportation industry. Lior Zeno, community manager of Ecomotion, told reporters that innovations like this are exactly

#Researchers create revolutionary optical fiber 3d printing technique for telecom and datacom industries As we continue to see more developments being made towards advancing additive manufacturing technologies,
what the latest 3d printing technologies can do for them, it is hardly surprising that we hear about exciting new (bioprinted) medical innovations almost every week.
This time, a team of scientists from the University of Nottingham show off an amazing 3d printing achievement.
3d bioprinting is a hot topic in the field of tissue engineering. owever it usually requires a printing environment that isn't compatible with living cells
while 3d printing could be used to 3d print it in huge complex scaffolding structures. What more, the body temperature environment needed to manufacture this material means that production costs remain relatively low.
They will subsequently use 3d printing technology to create artificial meninges structures. Upon implantation the brain blood vessels crawl into the structures.
he said. he core membrane adopts the most advanced 3d printing based bio-regenerative medical platform,
the key difference between bio 3d printing and traditional printing is in the printhead used. here are two kinds of printhead used in bio 3d printing:
When printing out membranes, he says, the machine sprays out a fiber-like ink onto biological paper that simulates the collagen structures found in body.
In time, this will allow on-demand organ printing to take place. In case of the Redura membrane
and artificial skin, blood vessels and ligament, many of which rely on the exact same 3d printing technique. In short, they are laying the technical foundations necessary for future development of more complex and advanced 3d printed artificial tissues and organs.
and clinical resources to push 3d printing from biological tissue reconstruction all the way up to 3d printing of organ regeneration.

#The Focus 3d printer Is multifaceted Portable , & Delicious? At the end of last year, Davide reported that a company called 3d By Flow was going to be releasing a 3d printer with all of the fixings for portability.
Later on, we got a sneak peek, through a story in The netherlands, that the printer would also be equipped to handle viscous materials, like food.
Now that printer has hit Kickstarter revealing its specs, pricing, name and All the printer from 3d By Flow,
called Focus, is indeed portable and, more than that, it designed to use a wide variety of materials,
The printer is designed to fold into a suitcase, weighing only 7 kg. The unfolding and setup process is meant only to take 20 seconds, with printing ready in just two minutes.
This is possible due to a lack of leveling or calibration as the printbed is fixed completely. An SD card reader allows for untethered printing,
though a USB capable allows for printing from a computer as well. The Focus also has bed a heat that can reach up to 100°C. And,
once you get printing, you should be able to achieve Z-axis resolutions of 5 microns, according to the company.
You can see the full specifications below: 3dbyflow has constructed already 20 printers and field tested them in various locations,
including the Albert Hejin supermarket, as previously noted. With a solid Kickstarter campaign, the company plans to both construct the Focus for all of their backers, before eventually launching a second printer for the healthcare industry, the MKB printer measuring at 50x50x50cm,
and a third specifically for chocolate. The early bird packages for the printer start at around $2,
200, increasing to about $2, 400 after that. Not a bad price for a compact and capable printer,
if it delivers on all of its promised specifications. I don like getting my hopes up in this industry anymore
but I definitely hopeful about this compact and versatile printer. Check out the Kickstarter page for more information and watch the video below c
