A method of providing high-speed three dimensional (3D) printing is described. The method includes producing at least one three dimensional (3D) printed part. Producing the 3D part includes continuously constructing to extend outwardly a diameter of a rotating cylindrical core via continuous deposition of a layer, and defining a first pattern in the continuously deposited layer corresponding to a cross-section of the at least one 3D printed part.

Provided is a mold part which does not generate periodic irregularities (scale pattern) which appear in the direction orthogonal to the drawing direction (MD) of the mold part having a surface which slides parallel to a molded article when the molded article is removed from the mold after injection molding during injection molding of a thermoplastic resin (in particular, a thermoplastic fluoropolymer), an injection molding method using the same, and a molded article in which periodic irregularities (scale pattern) (which appear in the direction orthogonal to the drawing direction (MD) of the mold part) do not appear. The mold part is used for injection molding of a thermoplastic resin, and includes a surface which slides substantially parallel to a molded article when the molded article is removed from the mold after injection molding, wherein the average tilt angle in the sliding direction (MD) is 1.5° or higher.

Techniques for evaluating support for an object to be fabricated via an additive fabrication device are provided. In some embodiments, a three-dimensional representation of the object is obtained and a plurality of voxels corresponding to the representation of the object is generated. A first supportedness value may be assigned to a first voxel of the plurality of voxels based on an amount of support provided by a support structure to the first voxel, and a second supportedness value determined for a second voxel of the plurality of voxels, wherein the second voxel neighbors the first voxel, and wherein the second supportedness value is determined based on the first supportedness value of the first voxel and a weight value representing a transmission rate of supportedness through voxels of the plurality of voxels.

A camera module, a molded circuit board assembly, a molded photosensitive assembly and manufacturing method thereof are disclosed. The camera module includes a molded base which is integrally formed with a circuit board through a molding process, wherein a photosensitive element may be electrically connected on the circuit board and at least a portion of a non-photosensitive area portion of the photosensitive element is also connected by the molded base through the molding process. A light window is formed in a central portion of the molded base to provide a light path for the photosensitive element, wherein a cross section of the light window is configured to have a trapezoidal or multi-step trapezoidal shape which has a size increasing from bottom to top to facilitate demoulding and avoiding stray lights.
