  • Patent number: 12240174
    Abstract: A method of 3D printing, a 3D printing system, and a vertical conveyor are disclosed herein. The 3D printing system comprises a vertical conveyor having a plurality of folding build plates; a plurality of biasing devices, a biasing device being configured to rotate a folding build plate from a folded position to a substantially horizontal position when the folding build plate enters a printing chamber position, and a 3D print head inside the print chamber adapted to 3D print an object on the folding build plate in the substantially horizontal position.

  • Publication number: 20240367383
    Abstract: A method for parallel additive manufacturing includes receiving a three-dimensional digital model file of an object for construction utilizing multiple additive manufacturing devices. The method also includes determining a decomposition of the three-dimensional digital model file of the object into multiple portions and instructing each additive manufacturing device from the multiple additive manufacturing devices to generate at least one portion from the multiple portions of the object. The multiple additive manufacturing devices operate in parallel to generate the multiple portions of the object. The method also include constructing the object with the multiple portions generated by the multiple additive manufacturing devices.

  • Publication number: 20240305648
    Abstract: A method, computer system, and a computer program product for cyber intrusion attribution is provided. The present invention may include initiating incident data tracking and actor intelligence data tracking in response to an intrusion. The present invention may include generating an intrusion comparison data set for each of the plurality of categories for both the incident data and the actor intelligence data. The present invention may include comparing each intrusion comparison data set for the incident data with a corresponding intrusion comparison data set for the actor intelligence data. The present invention may include identifying a potential actor attribution based on comparing each of the intrusion comparison data sets for the incident data with the corresponding intrusion comparison data set for the actor intelligence data.

  • Publication number: 20240208154
    Abstract: A disclosed system and methods provide enhanced, continuous 3D printing to manufacture 3D objects utilizing stabilizers supporting a 3D object being printed in components along a conveyor belt, enabling enhanced, efficient and effective manufacturing of 3D objects. A selected 3D object is printed from a primary material on supporting stabilizers, and the stabilizers are printed from a secondary material. The system coordinates movement of the printer head along the printing plane and the conveyor belt, creating an elongated printing surface along the conveyor belt for continuous 3D printing. Upon completion, the 3D object with the supporting stabilizers exits the conveyor belt and the 3D object is removed from the stabilizers.

  • Publication number: 20240165877
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure include a method of 3D printing, a 3D printing system, and a vertical conveyor. One embodiment of the method of 3D printing comprises positioning a build plate at a top of a printing chamber in a folded-down position, and moving the folded-down build plate to a printing level. The method may further comprise, at the printing level, unfolding the build plate to provide a substantially horizontal surface for supporting an item to be printed, and 3D printing an object on the unfolded build plate.
