CELLULOSE COMPOSITE MATERIAL, 3D PRINTING MATERIAL AND 3D PRINTING STRUCTURE INCLUDING THE SAME, AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE 3D PRINTING STRUCTURE USING THE SAME

Provided are a cellulose composite material, a three-dimensional (3D) printing material and a 3D printing structure including the cellulose composite material, and a method of manufacturing a 3D printing structure using the cellulose composite material. The cellulose material may be used as a 3D printable eco-friendly material using cellulose that is an eco-friendly natural material and a compound having a catechol group that is derived from nature, and a structure implemented with 3D printing has excellent tensile strength or compressive strength.

Additive manufacturing device, additive manufacturing method, and profile rod therefor

A method of using solid profile rods instead of the usual filament coils for additive manufacturing methods such as 3D printing for industrial applications such as aircraft manufacturing, and to enable a more rapid production of fiber-composite components. The additive manufacturing device, or the 3D printer which generates the component layer by layer, respectively, comprises a material magazine in which a plurality of profile rods are stored. The profile rods are pre-tailored and are adapted to the component layer by layer. The profile rods, when printing, are successively retrieved from the material magazine and, by way of an infeed installation, guided to the nozzle of the additive manufacturing installation and subsequently applied to the printing bed so as to form the component layer by layer.
