Chocolate 3D Printer Available For Sale

Yes, you indeed read that correctly. In line with the latest advances in 3D printing see’s the release of Choc Creator Version 1 which can print out custom 3D chocolates. At a hefty pricetag of around £2500 the Choc Creator Version 1 certainly is not cheap but has gathered interest from big name chocolate brands like Thornton’s and Co. The Choc Creator printer uses liquid chocolate and prints onto a flatbed surface from a design loaded into a computer. It uses a syringe and mechanical arm which although slow can precisely lay chocolate onto the flatbed surface using layers to build up a multitude of 3D shapes.

Manufacturers ChocEdge say they are focused “on providing cutting-edge 3D chocolate printing solutions for creative users and establishing world-leading capability in machine, software and material development.” We say it it would certainly make a great present and go down a treat! – Pun intended.

ChocEdge came about from a collaboration between colleagues and students from the University of Exeter. Founder, Dr Liang Hao termed the technology Chocolate Additive Layer Manufacturing (ChocALM). It’s inception came about in October 2007 when a group of final year students started to develop the Chocolate Additive Layer Manufacturing (ChocALM) machine and process.

3D Printing

Imagine a world where a computer is connected a device which can print a 3d object. Need something new from Amazon? Download the schematic and make it yourself on your own 3D Printer. Need a new part for your car or home? Download the model and hit print! 3D Printing opens up a world of opportunities and possibilities. Such a world sounds like it’s been plucked straight from Star Trek’s replicator and twenty years ago most people would of laughed but not Charles Hull who invented the first commercial 3d printer in 1984 based on a technique called stereolithography. To put it bluntly 3d printers create, real solid objects from digital data.

Over the last decade costs have been falling and the range of materials these printers use has steadily risen. 3D Printing has evolved so far to the point that the printers can now print with metals and fabrics and can make things which would otherwise be very difficult to manufacture. The applications for 3d printing is wide as it is diverse, and with attractive cost and time savings, major companies, and organisations are now starting to explore their potential.

If you thought you were going to be buying HP ink cartridges forever think again. The way forward is HP 3d ink cartridges. If you don’t know what I’m talking about why not take a look at the video.

Have you watched star trek the next generation? If you thought the replicator was the work of science fiction, think again. There are predictions that in about 20 years every home will have a 3d printer, changing the world and consumerism as we know it.

Ink cartridges as we know it will change forever. In fact it raises the question what will you do when run out of ink cartridges to print with? Order some new ink cartridges or make your own ink cartridges with your 3d printer? How about when you need a new printer? Why not additionally design your own or download a schematic straight from HP with the designs for your ink cartridges? I could go on but I think you see where I’m going with this.
