This thesis explores the design and analysis of a specialized mixer tailored for the production of optimal material feed for 3D chocolate printers. The objective is to enhance the efficiency and precision of chocolate-based additive manufacturing processes. The mixer incorporates heat and other techniques to transform raw chocolate materials into a consistent and malleable feed suitable for 3D printing. The study involves a comprehensive examination of the mixing process, considering factors such as temperature, viscosity, and composition.
Through systematic design iterations and analytical evaluations, the thesis aims to optimize the mixer's performance, ultimately ensuring the reliable production of intricate chocolate structures with 3D printing technology. This research contributes to advancing the field of edible 3D printing, addressing challenges specific to chocolatiers, and offering insights into the broader application of specialized mixers in additive manufacturing.
