Description

PancakeBot 3D Printer: PancakeBot 3D Printer

The PancakeBot 3D Printer is the world's first device to 3D print real pancakes in any shape. This appliance allows children and adults to express their creativity through food while exploring technology. The PancakeBot 3D printer began its history in 2010 in Norway, when loving dad Miguel Valenzuela decided to please his daughters with an unusual way of preparing breakfast. This is how the first prototype of a 3D printer that prints pancakes appeared. Miguel continued to improve the development until in 2014 StoreBound acquired all the rights to the PancakeBot and offered the inventor cooperation in order to bring the device to the market. Since then, the PancakeBot 3D printer has gone through many changes to get to where it is today. But the story does not end there: the team intends to improve the device in order to achieve maximum comfort in its use. nine0005

PancakeBot 3D printer: features

The device is based on the same principle as in conventional FDM 3D printing: liquid material is gradually applied to a special platform according to a given shape. But instead of plastic, the PancakeBot 3D printer uses dough that is dosed and automatically fed onto a baking sheet. For the design of designer pancakes, the use of special software is provided, which is as simple and convenient as possible to use. As with most desktop 3D printers, files are loaded into the PancakeBot 3D printer using an SD card. PancakeBot Features:

  • Removable non-stick pan with temperature dial and drip tray;
  • BPA-free batter bowl with dispenser. Any type of dough will do, recommended recipe included;
  • Collapsible design for easy storage;
  • Construction area dimensions - 44.5 x 21 cm.

PancakeBot 3D printer is an unusual device, created more for experiments and a better understanding of 3D printing technology. As always, when learning something new, working with it is carried out by trial and error. For faster and easier learning to work with the printer, the developers have created a special web resource. It contains useful video tutorials, various user projects and a forum where everyone can ask their own question. The site was created to help new users and share their own experience with PancakeBot. nine0005

        What is a 3D food printer


        The main feature of a food 3D printer is the raw materials used: instead of printing ink, the device is filled with edible ingredients. The database stores a large number of different recipes, and in order to print a dish, you just need to select one of them and activate the printing process. The final product is layered on a work surface or on a plate: it can be baked in the oven or sent to the freezer. nine0005

        Application


        Futuristic 3D Printed Sugar Candy


        Cookies printed with glaze


        Chocolate logos of famous companies


        Cream Photo Print

        Buying a food 3D printer is worth the owners of coffee houses, author's bakeries and private workshops. The finished product has a unique shape and bright appearance. Food printers are often used to create custom wedding cakes, cartoon character cookies, Christmas gingerbread cookies, and so on. The possibilities of a baker who owns such a device are endless: the main thing is to buy quality products. nine0005

        Raw materials used

        The following ingredients are used as raw materials:

        • Chocolate without additives and impurities;

        • Mastic;

        • Sugar;

        • Whipped cottage cheese;

        • Vegetable and fruit pastes; nine0005

        • Fish and meat pates;

        • Flour;

        • Cheese, etc.

        The confectionery pattern is applied to sugar, wafer or shock transfer paper. The first type has a sweetish aftertaste and aroma of vanilla. Due to the snow-white surface, no additional coating is required: the drawings look bright and clear. The wafer paper is made from rice flour and does not have a special taste, due to the light shade, the final drawings look less clear. Shock transfer paper is completely transparent and is suitable for transferring a design to a product (for example, a cake). For the packaging of finished products, food-grade plastic for a 3D printer is used. nine0005

        Interesting! Food printers are involved in waste reduction. Unattractive fruit and confectionery leftovers are used in the preparation of printing mixes. This makes it possible to use the means of production more efficiently.

        Types of 3D food printers


        Cooking enthusiasts can take advantage of the following food printing devices:

        1. Food 3D printers are devices that print dishes whose recipes are listed in a database. The final product is layer-by-layer superimposed on the work surface, and the raw material comes from filled cartridges; nine0005

        2. Confectionery printers are used to transfer images onto specialty paper or to design small confectionery products such as candies. Such printers print an image on pre-prepared paper: rice, wafer or shock transfer;

        3. Food plotters transfer the image not to paper, but directly to the finished product. For example, a plotter is used to transfer an image directly onto a cake. nine0005

        There are several types of food 3D printers:

        • Extrusion - paint is applied to the surface before the dish is created. The process is controlled by the computer with the loaded image. The system has an extruder that heats the food mixture, and the distribution of raw materials depends on the print head. The raw material is loaded into a syringe placed in the head. This means that in order to combine different shades, you have to periodically stop printing and change the syringe; nine0005

        • A carousel-type food 3D printer also has an extruder, but its main feature is the method of feeding raw materials: the containers rotate around the working surface, the supply and dosage of the material used depends on the recipe specified in the program. The storage can contain countless recipes, and operation does not cause difficulties even for an inexperienced user.

        Popular manufacturers

        Eminent manufacturers offer the best value for money food 3D printer. Quality devices provide accurate printing, high speed, durability, simplicity and ease of use.
