Method for 3D printing, comprising the following steps: providing a packaging (2′) having at least one recess (3′) for receiving a product (1′), wherein the shape of the recess (3′) corresponds at least in part to the shape of the product (1′) and wherein the recess (3′) forms a protuberance at the other side of the packaging (2′); providing a 3D printer with a print base (5′) having at least one recess (6′) for receiving the protuberance formed by the recess (3′) of the packaging (2′); inserting the packaging (2′) in the print base (5′) such that the protuberance formed by the recess (3′) of the packaging (2′) is received by the recess (6′) of the print base (5′); filling a print head (7′) of the 3D printer with at least one material for printing the product (1′); 3D printing the product (1′) inside the recess (3′) of the packaging (2′), wherein the part of the recess (3′) corresponding to the shape of the product (1′) serves as the mold and print support, resp., for those layers of the product (1′) which are 3D printed first. The method is performed with a system for 3D printing, comprising a packaging (2′) having at least one recess (3′) for receiving a product (1′), wherein the shape of the recess (3′) corresponds at least in part to the shape of the product (1′) and wherein the recess (3′) forms a protuberance at the other side of the packaging (2′); and a 3D printer with a print head (7′) and a print base (5′); characterized in that the print base (5′) has at least one recess (6′) for receiving the protuberance formed by the recess (3′) of the packaging (2′) to support the packaging (2′) with the recess (3′) such that the product (1′) can be 3D printed inside the recess (3′) of the packaging (2′), wherein the part of the recess (3′) corresponding to the shape of the product (1′) serves as the mold and print support, resp., for those layers of the product (1′) which are 3D printed first.
A system for producing pharmaceutical objects comprising tablets, granules and/or capsules, via 3D printing, the system comprising a 3D printing machine with a mechanical system movable in one or more directions, at least one print head with a nozzle being movable by the mechanical system, and a system base carrying a print base for receiving a prepared mixture applied by the print head, wherein the system comprises at least one carrier for holding at least one cartridge containing at least one printable pharmaceutical substance which is filled in the print head, wherein the pharmaceutical substance is a powder, granule, liquid, gel, cream or paste, and wherein
A method for producing pharmaceutical objects comprising tablets, granules and capsules, via 3D printing, the method comprising:
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform an operation on a 3D printer, the operation comprising:
