| Industrial Designs | Industrial design rights are rights granted for the exclusive use of the ornamental or aesthetic aspects of a mass-produced article of industry and handicraft. The design may consist of three-dimensional features, such as the shape or surface of an article, or of two-dimensional features, such as patterns, lines or color. | | | | Ink-Jet Printing 3-D | Ink-Jet Printing refers to an entire class of machines that employ ink-jet technology. The first was 3D Printing (3DP), developed at MIT and licensed to Soligen Corporation, Extrude Hone, and others. The ZCorp 3D printer, produced by Z Corporation of Burlington, MA ( http://www.zcorp.com/) is an example of this technology. Parts are built upon a platform situated in a bin full of powder material. An ink-jet printing head selectively deposits or "prints" a binder fluid to fuse the powder together in the desired areas. Unbound powder remains to support the part. The platform is lowered, more powder added and leveled, and the process repeated. When finished, the green part is then removed from the unbound powder, and excess unbound powder is blown off. Finished parts can be infiltrated with wax, CA glue, or other sealants to improve durability and surface finish. Typical layer thicknesses are on the order of 0.1 mm. This process is very fast, and produces parts with a slightly grainy surface. Machines with 4 color printing capability are available. | | | | Innosupport | A Leonardo da Vinci pilot project Title: Internet Supported Module System for the Innovative Problem Solving Methods Duration: Oct 2003 - Sept 2005 | | | | Innovation |
