Abstract: Techniques for manufacturing optimization using a multi-tenant machine learning platform are disclosed. A method for manufacturing optimization includes: obtaining physical sensor data, by a manufacturing device associated with a tenant of a multi-tenant machine learning platform; determining, by a machine learning spoke system associated with the tenant, a machine learning parameter based on at least the physical sensor data; preventing exposure of the first physical sensor data of the first manufacturing device to any other tenant of the multi-tenant machine learning platform; transmitting the machine learning parameter from the machine learning spoke system to a machine learning hub system of the multi-tenant machine learning platform; and updating, by the machine learning hub system, a multi-tenant machine learning model based at least on the machine learning parameter.

Abstract: Various embodiments related to three dimensional printers, and reinforced filaments, and their methods of use are described. In one embodiment, a void free reinforced filament is fed into an conduit nozzle. The reinforced filament includes a core, which may be continuous or semi-continuous, and a matrix material surrounding the core. The reinforced filament is heated to a temperature greater than a melting temperature of the matrix material and less than a melting temperature of the core prior to drag the filament from the conduit nozzle.

Abstract: For 3D printing green parts to be debound and sintered, a binder may be jetted into successive layers of sinterable powder feedstock to build up a 3D shape of a desired 3D green part, associated sintering supports, and an associated shrinking platform. A release material may be deposited to intervene between the 3D green parts and the sintering supports. A placeholder material may be deposited upon bound powder to form 2D layer shapes of placeholder material, and the sinterable powder feedstock refilled and leveled about the placeholder material. Upon debinding, internal cavities corresponding to the 3D shapes of the placeholder material are formed.
