Granular matter placed in a vertical cylinder rotated back and forth between limiting angles creates a sidewards flying bed. A spoke is connected at one between a vertical drive shaft rotating the cylinder and a first hinge. A drive rod is connected between the first hinge and a second hinge on a rotating flywheel. Rotation of the flywheel causes the drive shaft to rotate through an angle varying back and forth between limiting angles. The cylinder's speed of rotation varies. During most of the time centrifugal forces greater than gravity act upon the granular material, causing the material to form a layer on the inner wall of the cylinder. In at least a portion of the recurring time intervals the acceleration and deceleration produce tangential forces greater than the centrifugal forces acting upon the layer, causing the granular material to fly sidewards in a direction tangential to the cylinder's circumference. |

Embodiments generally relate to a system for color printing on 3D printed objects. In one embodiment, a ring of ink jet emitters is positioned around an extruder head but out of the build plane. By coordinated emission of ink that is focused on one or more portions of a bead of material deposited by a 3D printer head, colored points can be created on the surface of the bead or “road” formed by successive or continuous deposition of material by the extruder head. |
