The innovation project Cook.3D<\/a> initiated and supervised by GIQS within the INTERREG project FOOD2020<\/a> is in its final stages. By the end of August, the German-Dutch consortium of four partners will develop the prototype of a kitchen robot with an integrated 3D printing process for the automatic creation of individualised food products.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the end of 2018, the four project partners \u2013 Hochschule Ruhr West<\/a>, VromVrij.3D<\/a>, EAS GmbH<\/a> and Progress Events<\/a> \u2013 have been working together on a new approach to 3D printing of food. The main goal is to overcome the two major disadvantages of currently available 3D food printer models. For example, most models require a great deal of technical and practical experience to operate them in order to make the best use of them. In addition, the printers are often difficult and time-consuming to clean. The challenge of the German-Dutch project consortium was therefore to build a machine that combines the advantages of greater automation of a control system and the cleanliness of a new concept for the print head: a clean and hygienic 3D printer for food that can be used by anyone, regardless of their level of technical knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
