  • Patent number: 10349663
    Abstract: A system for three-dimensional (3D) printing edible objects, the system including: a first 3D printer including: a first processor; one or more cartridges for storing ingredients used in printing a 3D printed edible object, a plurality of extruders for extruding the ingredients during printing of the 3D printed edible object and a plurality of relays coupled to the plurality of extruders. A first cartridge stores a first ingredient while a second cartridge stores a second ingredient that may be different from the first ingredient. A first extruder extrudes the first ingredient and a second extruder extrudes the second ingredient in a synchronized motion. A first subset of the plurality of relays is configured to control the first extruder and a second subset of the plurality of relays is configured to control the second extruder.

  • Patent number: 10178868
    Abstract: The print system includes a 3D-printer system having a housing, a CNC robot having food silos for storing toppings, an electronic device may be coupled to the 3D-printer system and the CNC robot and receive input via a user interface. The print system also includes a cart that may include a plurality of wheels to facilitate movement of the print system. The cart is also configured to support the 3D-printer system, the CNC robot and the electronic device. The interior of the cart may also house an air compressor as well as a water and food residue receptacle that receives water and food residue resulting from an auto-cleaning process of the print system, which is discussed below in detail. The cart may (i) house a coupling to a clean water source and as containers for storing cleaning solution, and (ii) be configured to support a cleaning compartment.
