Bosch Patents Suggest Continuous Pellet 3D Printing
Bosch has published three related German patent applications that point toward a rather interesting 3D printing concept: a pellet-based extrusion system designed to keep printing while its printheads are being refilled.
3D Systems Patent a New Way to Align Printheads
3D Systems has published a European patent application for a printhead mounting and alignment system that could make multi printhead 3D printers easier to calibrate.
