Additive manufacturing or what is now popularly known as 3D printing has seen tremendous growth in the tech sector over the past few years. There is a thriving community - from individual entrepreneurs to big businesses - who are exploring the potential of 3D printing. From concept cars to guns, children's toys, prosthetics, houses, etc. the number of products being 3D printed has multiplied at an alarming rate.
The concept of 3D printing is very straightforward, wherein a 3D printer acts in the capacity of an industrial robot, and helps to create models which are either designed by using CAD (Computer Aided Design) or via 3D scanner. 3D printed objects can not only be of any shape or geometry, but, if used with a well-calibrated printer, can be incredibly close to its design source while being cost-effective.
With its new found popularity and the potential to disrupt a variety of industries, 3D printing is now also finding vast acceptance in the food industry. The fundamental thought behind 3D printed food is the immense possibility of a tabletop 3d printer which can print affordable and tasty meals without an extensive need of cooking knowledge. Although in its nascent phase, 3D printing is poised to change the future of the food industry, and its impact is already being felt on a global scale.
Many innovators in the 3d printing industry have come up with food printers that enable us to eat healthy and nutritious food more regularly. 3D food printers not only use fresh ingredients for a variety of recipes, but also allow stricter control over food portion sizes, thereby reducing overconsumption. Another advantage of these printers is that you can even regulate preservatives, additives and other chemicals added to your food, thereby leading to a healthier meal plan. Some of the examples of such 3D food printers include -
