SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMPROVED 3D PRINTING

A method includes independently controlling a feed rate for each of at least two different input materials for three dimensional (3D) printing to generate a processed material that varies continuously in composition along at least a portion of its length, adding syncing features to the processed mat...

Zusammenfassung:	A method includes independently controlling a feed rate for each of at least two different input materials for three dimensional (3D) printing to generate a processed material that varies continuously in composition along at least a portion of its length, adding syncing features to the processed material at specific locations of the processed material, and creating data that coordinates the specific locations of the processed material with the continuous variation in composition of the processed material, wherein the data and the syncing features are useable by a 3D printer to synchronize the continuous variation in composition of the processed material with volumetric or surface locations of an object during 3D printing of the object using the processed material.
