The rising trend of food 3D printing [12] supports the customisation of shape, colour, flavour, texture and nutrition of different meals. Multi-material 3D printing enables using multiple ingredients like peanut butter, jelly or dough in the printing process, which is essential for the creation of most foods.
Prusa i3, a simple fused filament printer. Fused filament fabrication (FFF), also known as fused deposition modeling (with the trademarked acronym FDM), or filament freeform fabrication, is a 3D printing process that uses a continuous filament of a thermoplastic material. [1] Filament is fed from a large spool through a moving, heated printer ...
Food presentation and food appearance customization for individuals is a big trend in the food industry. So far food customization and creative designs have required hand-made skills, which results in low production rate and high cost. 3D food printing can overcome this problem by providing the necessary tools for creative food design even for ...
Hyrel 3D is a company which manufactures 3D Printers for home, office and industrial settings, and is based in Atlanta, GA.Hyrel 3D makes modular manufacturing machines that are capable of additive and subtractive processes, including fused deposition modeling. [1]
3D printing filament is the thermoplastic feedstock for fused deposition modeling 3D printers. There are many types of filament available with different properties. [1] Filament comes in a range of diameters, most commonly 1.75 mm and 2.85 mm, [2] with the latter often being confused with the less common 3 mm. [3]

A large variety of foods are appropriate candidates, such as chocolate and candy, and flat foods such as crackers, pasta, [36] and pizza. [37] [38] NASA has considered the versatility of the concept, awarding a contract to the Systems and Materials Research Consultancy to study the feasibility of printing food in space. [39]
3D Systems manufactures stereolithography (SLA), fused deposition modeling (FDM), selective laser sintering (SLS), color-jet printing (CJP), multi-jet printing (MJP), and direct metal printing (DMP, a version of SLS that uses metal powder) systems. Each technology uses digital 3D data to create parts through an additive layer-by-layer process.
