In today's article, we discovered a selection of 8 startups capable of developing all kinds of products using 3D printing technologies: from plant-based meat to eco-sustainable homes and glasses.
BCN3D develops and manufactures 3D printing solutions for all types of industries and sectors (healthcare, universities, architecture...). The startup, which aims to change the status quo of traditional manufacturing, develops desktop 3D printers, taking into account the importance of factors such as ease of use and versatility, with which users are able to materialize all their ideas.
Triditive has developed and markets an automated industrial 3D printer managed by Machine Learning. Its solution, MCELL®, consisting of eight automated robots, automates the additive production process, allowing the industry to manufacture metals and polymers in series (on demand and at a lower cost). In addition, Triditive customers can remotely control the printing process, using their own software.
Natural Machines has developed Foodini, a 3D food printer that can be used by both professionals and private users. The startup uses an open capsule model, through which the user can prepare and place fresh ingredients in Foodini. Thus, the printer takes care of those more difficult or expensive parts of cooking food and automates some home cooking steps.
Be More 3D works to build housing developments, affordable for all types of purchasing levels, through the use of 3D printing technologies. The Be More 3D system, capable of building a 70 m2 house in just 8 hours, reduces the production costs of conventional construction by up to 35%, as well as reducing occupational hazards and the emission of harmful gases, among others.
NOVAMEAT applies bioprinting to the food sector, to produce meat of plant origin (from vegetable fat, water and vegetable protein sources), with the aim of helping, contributing and solving the biodiversity crisis as much as possible. The system developed by NOVAMEAT is capable of imitating the texture, flavor and nutritional properties of meat of animal origin, while combating the unsustainability of the global agricultural system.
Formbytes emerges from the need to bring 3D printing closer to schools and homes. The Formbytes team sells a kit with which the user can build their own 3D printer (small and transportable) in an easy and intuitive way to then print everything they want. In addition, to facilitate learning, Formbytes offers a 3D printing workshop to learn how to use the printer and learn more about 3D technology.L
IQ combines fashion and technology to offer its customers glasses made using 3D printing in Polyamide. The startup is inspired by the ability of water to transform and takes advantage of the opportunities offered by 3D printing to create new forms, always maintaining a modern and cosmopolitan style in all its designs. In addition, the startup works under an eco-sustainable business model: without stocks and without waste of material.
Xkelet has developed 3D printing software capable of virtually building personalized immobilization systems (post-traumatic and therapeutic), depending on each patient and each limb, in less than two minutes. Thanks to Xkelet's solutions, healthcare professionals are able to improve society's quality of life, avoiding problems derived from traditional immobilization systems such as plaster and current orthopedic systems.
