About Candy Printeri 3D Candy

Candy është një printer 3D shtëpiak për fëmijë që printon forma të ngrënshme nga granula karamelesh. Makina kontrollohet nga një aplikacion celular, i cili lejon të përcaktohet radha e printimit, numri dhe madhësia e secilit model. Tre rezervuarë mbajnë tre shije të ndryshme karamelesh, kështu që shija dhe ngjyra mund të kombinohen në një printim të vetëm. Granulat ngrohen, shkrihen dhe formohen përmes një hunde. Trupi është prej plastike me sipërfaqe mat, dhe një dritare akrilike transparente hapet nga një çelës me sustë për të hequr karamelen e përfunduar. Dizajni është frymëzuar nga arti popullor kinez i fryrjes së figurave prej sheqeri.

Production Technology
The candy 3D printer is mainly made of plastic material, natural color injection and matte surface.
The front window is made of transparent acrylic, and the window is opened by a spring switch to take away the finished candy.
The internal mechanical structure is the same as that of the traditional 3D printer, and the materials are all food-grade.
Inside, the granulated candy is heated and melted, and finally solidified and formed through the nozzle, just like a hot melt gun.
Design Challenge
How to absorb the advantages of traditional sugar blowers skillfully and in what form to realize them, the integration and trade-off between traditional Chinese folk art and modern technology is the most difficult point of our design.
Research
We studied the working principle of the 3D printer, the state of the sugar at different times when it was heated, investigated the color of the candy and the different shapes of the candy that the child likes, and developed and adjusted the APP.
Inspiration
The inspiration comes from the traditional Chinese folk art: "Sugar Figure Blowing Art". The children like the candy made by the artists very much. Due to the difficulty of making and the reduction of heirs, this art is gradually disappearing. We want to promote this through 3D printing technology. Interesting art has brought more children into contact with this traditional Chinese folk art and added fun to the children's lives.
Project Duration
The project started in April 2019 in Hebei and finished in February 2020 in Hebei China.
Operation Flow
The candy 3D printer has a total of three raw material tanks, which can be filled with three different candy raw materials. Through the APP operation, anyone can set the printing order, number, and size of the printed model. Different data models will also be displayed. The time and amount of raw materials required for different sizes. The overall image of the model tends to be cartoon.
