Abstract: Three-dimensional (3D) printing systems include a 3D printer that includes a print bed that has one or more walls arranged to enclose a basin configured to contain a printing material. A compression plate is configured to fit slidably within, or on top surfaces of, the one or more walls of the print bed. A bottom plate forms a base of the basin and is configured to fit slidably within the one or more walls of the print bed. An elevation controller moves one or both of the compression plate and the bottom plate towards each other to apply a specified compressive force on printing material within the basin. The compression plate and the bottom plate together seal the basin sufficiently to avoid leakage of the print material from the basin.

Abstract: The mobile device management system provides for administration of mobile devices associated with a customer and supported by multiple service providers or carriers. The system provides a central, customized interface for management of mobile devices. The system aggregates customer policies, service plan information from various service providers and specific end user information to enable management of mobile devices. Management functions include procurement, expense management, billing and invoicing, support and monitoring of mobile devices associated with the customer. This system and method for managing mobile devices and services keeps the customers mobile workforce connected while reducing the total cost of ownership.
