Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for printing three-dimensional (3D) objects. A system for printing a 3D object may comprise at least one platform configured to hold a film of at least one mixture, a deposition unit for providing the film of the at least one mixture, and a building unit for forming at least a portion of the 3D object from the film of the at least one mixture. The system may further comprise a controller operatively coupled to the at least one platform. The controller may be configured to direct the at least one platform to move from the deposition unit to the building unit, or vice versa, along a plurality of non-overlapping paths.

Abstract: In an example embodiment, a solution that allows a PBX to utilize bridged mobile or desktop applications for collaboration and softphone use is provided. The solution works in conjunction with existing hardwired PBX devices without requiring additional hardware such as an edge router to be integrated with the PBX hardware. Incoming calls are able to ring a user's hardwired device, such as a desk phone at an office, while simultaneously ring mobile device or desktop applications (apps). App users can place outbound PSTN calls and dial PBX extensions just as if they were using their hardwired device. Additionally, PSTN services are utilized from the existing PBX rather than bypassing the existing PBX, which makes tracking and billing more straightforward. A Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) tie trunk is used between the existing PBX and a software bridge controller.

Abstract: A bellows assembly includes a first compliant portion extending outwardly at a first angle relative to a lateral axis, a second compliant portion, and a third compliant portion extending outwardly at a second angle relative to the lateral axis. The second compliant portion is formed between, and coupled to, the first and third compliant portions. The first angle and the second angle are between about 30 degrees to 80 degrees, such that the first compliant portion and the third compliant portion form inward extending cone shapes.

Abstract: The present disclosure various apparatuses, and systems for 3D printing. The present disclosure provides three-dimensional (3D) printing methods, apparatuses, software and systems for a step and repeat energy irradiation process; controlling material characteristics and/or deformation of the 3D object; reducing deformation in a printed 3D object; and planarizing a material bed.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a computer-implemented method for generating an application executable by a three-dimensional (3D) printing system to print a 3D object. The method may comprise providing at least one electronic file comprising a plurality of operations of the 3D printing system. An operation of the plurality of operations may be associated with a configuration of at least one component of the 3D printing system. The at least one electronic file may not comprise a source code usable to generate the application. The method may comprise using the at least one electronic file to generate at least another electronic file comprising the source code that is usable to generate the application.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for printing three-dimensional (3D) objects. A system for printing a 3D object may comprise a platform comprising an area configured to hold a mixture including a photoactive resin. The platform may comprise a first coupling unit. The system may comprise an optical source configured to provide light to the mixture for curing the photoactive resin in at least a portion of the mixture to print at least a portion of the 3D object. The system may comprise a build head configured to support the at least he portion of the 3D object during printing. The build head may comprise a second coupling unit that is configured to couple to the first coupling unit to provide an alignment of the area of the platform relative to a surface of the build head while printing the at least the portion of the 3D object.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a thermal management device comprising a vapor chamber, a heat pipe in fluid communication with the vapor chamber, and a fin in thermal contact with the heat pipe. The vapor chamber may contain a first working fluid and may facilitate transfer of thermal energy from a source of thermal energy to the first working fluid. The fin may comprise a fluid flow path configured to direct a second working fluid from a first opening to a second opening. The first opening may be oriented along a first direction of flow towards the fin, and the second opening may be oriented along a second direction different than the first direction. The heat pipe may direct the first working fluid from the vapor chamber through the heat pipe and may facilitate transfer of thermal energy from the first working fluid to the fin or the second working fluid.
