MUMBAI, India, Nov. 2 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641122407 A) filed by Saveetha Institute Of Medical And Technical Sciences on October 13, 2026, for 3d Choco Print: Smart Android Controlled Chocolate Printing System.
Inventors include K. Bhargav; Dr. Suresh Balakrishnan T; and Dr Ramya Mohan.
The application for the patent was published on October 30, 2026, under issue no. 44/2026.
Abstract: The 3D Chocolate Printer is an advanced food fabrication system designed to create customized chocolate structures using precise layer-by-layer extrusion technology. The system operates on controlled X and Y axes while allowing manual or programmable Z-axis variation for accurate layer height management. It supports multicolor chocolate extrusion using a rotational color-switching mechanism integrated with angle-based control logic. The smart dashboard enables users to select the number of color layers, automatically calculating the color transition angle (e.g., 3600/4 layers = 90° per color shift). Users can input custom Z values for each layer to achieve gradient or structured designs. The application generates Gcode based on selected parameters and provides real-time 3D simulation before printing. The simulation ensures path accuracy and color distribution validation prior to hardware execution. The system supports WiFi and USB connectivity for seamless communication between the mobile application and printer hardware. Temperature control and extrusion speed parameters are optimized specifically for chocolate viscosity and food safety standards. The multicolor dashboard visually displays axis movement, layer count, angle transitions, and extrusion status. An intuitive start/stop control button allows precise operational control during printing. The system enhances personalization in confectionery production for bakeries, events, and customized gifting. It reduces manual effort while improving design consistency and production efficiency. The project combines embedded systems, Androidbased software control, and mechanical precision engineering. Overall, the 3D Chocolate Printer introduces an innovative, user-friendly, and scalable solution for automated multicolor chocolate manufacturing.
