Patent number: 10780653Abstract: A slicing and printing method for colour 3D physical model with protective film is provided. The method executes a slicing process to colour 3D object data for generating multiple layers of object slice data and colour slice data, generate multiple layers of body slice data and multiple layers of protection slice data according to multiple layers of the object slice data, manufacture multiple layers of body slice physical models according to multiple layers of the body slice data, color each layer of the manufactured body slice physical model according to the same layer of the colour slice data, and use light-transmissive print materials to manufacture multiple layers of protection slice physical models according to multiple layers of the protection slice data. The method can effectively make the manufactured colour 3D physical model be with light-transmissive protective film, and prevent the colour 3D physical model from decolorization.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2018Date of Patent: September 22, 2020Assignees: XYZPRINTING, INC., KINPO ELECTRONICS, INC.Inventors: Shyh-Yong Shen, Kwan Ho, Yang-Teh Lee, Ting-Chun Chu

Publication number: 20200282651Abstract: The present invention relates to a feeding control system of a 3D printer and a feeding control method thereof. The feeding control system, used with a filament, comprises a first feeding apparatus, a second feeding apparatus, and a feeding sensor. The first feeding apparatus comprises an outlet, a fixed wheel set, a movable wheel set, and a controller. The fixed wheel set and the movable wheel set hold and deliver the filament to the outlet. The controller is disposed corresponding to the movable wheel set. The second feeding apparatus is installed in the 3D printer. The feeding sensor is disposed corresponding to the second feeding apparatus and used to sense entrance of the filament to generate a release signal. After receiving the release signal, the controller drives the movable wheel set to move away from the fixed wheel set to release the filament.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 21, 2019Publication date: September 10, 2020Inventors: Ting-Chun CHU, Yi-Chu HSIEH, Yang-Teh LEE

Publication number: 20180311909Abstract: A three dimensional printing apparatus including a frame, a control module, a nozzle module, and a feeding module is provided. The nozzle module is movably disposed in the frame and electrically connected to the control module. The control module drives the nozzle module to move in the frame to define a printing space. Also, the control module drives the nozzle module to print a three dimensional object in the printing space. The feeding module is detachably assembled to the frame and electrically connected to the control module. The control module drives the feeding module to transfer a medium into the printing space and drives the nozzle module to print a two-dimensional pattern onto the medium.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 3, 2017Publication date: November 1, 2018Applicants: XYZprinting, Inc., Kinpo Electronics, Inc.Inventors: Yang-Teh Lee, Jia-Yi Juang, Chun-Hsiang Huang, Ming-En Ho, Yi-Chu Hsieh, Ting-Chun Chu
