Can you 3D Print a Water Bottle? | Design for Mass Production 3D Printing

Ғылым және технология

In this episode of Design for Mass Production 3D Printing, we push the boundaries of FDM 3D printing, as we tackle the ambitious challenge of creating a 3D printed water bottle, in an attempt to prove that virtually any manufacturing limitations can be overcome by carefully planning and designing with intention.
We address the limitations of FDM printed parts not being food-safe nor waterproof. Discover how we've managed to design around these limitations and redefined what's possible in designing and manufacturing 3D printed products.

    I think you have missed the point. You can create a unique design that holds water which is a water bottle. There is an element of resourcefulness, but that is the benefit of rapid prototyping which can be shifted straight into production. The Raspberry Pi foundation is equally as ingenious in it’s approach to give you amazing compute boards.

    This is actually little different from using a coating on things like food bowls, etc. There's a potential porosity with 3D prints...so you're given suggestions for coatings like you'd put on things like wooden bowls, etc. That's not cheating any more than what they did there. It's still a bottle. It's still mostly 3D printed (Armor for a fragile bladder constitutes a bottle as a complete assembly because it's the whole product that counts.). What you're looking for is a silver bullet...which isn't going to be the case for any Additive system on the planet. Sorry... Your takeaway for this is the biggest takeaway: "No process is inherently limited- you are limited by your ability to engineer for that process" I (and they) can't help that you're not engineering for it right. ;)

Without the layer of plastic coating the cardboard would get soaked and disintegrate. All of its parts are necessary for its basic function. Whereas the water bottle inside the case you made doesn't actually need the case to function. I have a few of these flexible water bottles, they have lasted for years without a case. The case would actually detract from their utility since one of the benefits of them is that they fold up when they are empty. But your case is going to remain rigid and continue taking up space.

    I was kinda hoping that there would be some discussion about whether the printing process itself could be made more food safe. Over-extrusion to fill in gaps, using food safe PETG, etc. If that can't be done - perhaps something like food safe spray-on liners to allow the interior to be any shape you want. Printing a shell around an existing food-safe container - kinda feels like cheating. Yes, of course if you just make a shell that's okay.

Essentially that yes, 3D printing is food safe. It is not "certified" safe but they expect it eventually. From the article: “Plastic cutting boards seem to have more contamination than 3D-printed parts. More CFU’s grew on the petri dishes from a plastic cutting board that had been washed with soapy water, than 3D-printed parts that were washed with the same method." Matt Thomas. "IEEE 3D printing and food safety" IEEE (2023) It is about a 6-page read, shows their cleaning and testing methods and which filament types they used.

    Another idea: Print the water bottle in one piece then pour some kind of epoxy/resin/urethane inside which is food safe? Roll the bottle around to completely coat the inside, pour out the excess, allow to cure, done? I feel like that would be much closer to a fully 3D printed water bottle than this solution. As long as you could find a flexible product that doesn't degrade for many years, it could be an affordable and long lasting solution. I'm finding food safe urethane resins for indirect food contact, but not sure if there is anything home brewed that is technically 100% food safe. Hmmm.

    honestly, this uses more plastic than just using a plastic water bottle, the soft TPU or silicone water bottle is flexible but is made from more or less material than a rigid petg/recyclable one. And even the rigid one you can just squish it a bit once you're done. This gets rid of the advantage of being able to squish the blader bottle. It's occupying the same space while also not holding water by itself. But I also think that it's a neat idea and we actually need more of these. A good step in the right direction. And even if it's not a substitute of said existing bottles, it's an invention that someone will probably find useful and necessary.

    ​@@slant3dyou called it a "fully FDM 3d printed water bottle," right after your speech about debunking the idea that fdm 3d printed parts can't be food safe or water tight. then you led us around by the nose for a good portion of the video, expecting a way to make a "fully FDM 3d printed waterbottle" completely foodsafe and watertight. that's not what you delivered. conceding the nonsensical idea that it's "just like a milk carton," this still isn't what you promised. you promised a functional... foodsafe... "FULLY FDM 3D PRINTED WATERBOTTLE," which, being FULLY FDM 3D PRINTED shouldn't contain components that don't meet the definition of FULLY FDM 3D PRINTED. the word for this kind of claim is called a "lie."

    So the conclusion is you can't really FDM 3D print a water bottle but a case around a bladder to make it appear as a water bottle. Pretty disingenuous to say you can make a food safe, leak free, fully FDM 3D printed water bottle then present something that is merely a case around what actually holds the water. Thought you'd coat the inside or otherwise, similar to cartons, not just.. put a bought product inside. It's a nice idea if you want a custom water bottle and want it to actually hold water, but you pretty much lied by saying all limitations of FDM 3D printing are incorrect and saying it's FULLY FDM 3D printed when it's very clearly not. But if you insist on saying it's a fully FDM 3D printed water bottle, then the same logic can be applied by making a water bottle entirely out of paper and putting a bladder inside it.

    For this discussion, lets look at the problem of nesting. An aluminum can takes as much space to ship EMPTY as it does to ship when filled, and sealed. A water bottle shipped empty, then filled, takes a lot of transportation expense to get it to the filling station because it is not nestable. So let's take this concept, and design a nestable solution. Shipping empty containers at some tiny fraction of the volume, until filling is where the design can shine. Once filled, it will be heavy, and take the volume it takes.... But let's reduce the pre-filling volume. So let's say the inner liners can be flat packed and shipped tightly. Then, lets say Slant 3D's two halves, can be nested to each other, and flat packed tightly. THEN, at filling time, the liner and two halves come together, and take the volume they take. HUGE savings on shipping empty containers. WIN, Win, win.

    I think most people expected be able to print a water bottle at home right now after viewing the video - me included. However, the water pouch solution makes perfect sense in the context of manufacturer: buy a few thousand pouches for close to nothing, print the halves and assemble everything with minimal human intervention. Without the pouch, you would need an expensive post-processing to apply multiple coats of some food-safe resin, QC the application, test watertightness and you'd be responsible to ensure your product is food safe. Basically, with this solution you outsource all the trouble to the pouch manufacturer. I'd love to make a food safe water bottle *from scratch*! So if anyone has a non-pouch solution, I'm all ears ;)

    I did actually print a waterproof waterbottle using FDM 3D printing, unlike what you did in this video. Here are some tips for those who are interested: 1. Make sure you use clean stainless steel nozzle, heatbreak and extruder gears. 2. Make sure you don't use toxic materials with these specific components in #1 3. Check your flow/extrusion multiplier and up it by a bit (5-10% works well) 4. Use food safe material (PP, PET, Nonoilen(btw fantastic material)...etc). Also check that the manufacturer has certificate that these materials are FDA approved/food safe. 5. Print your part and use it normally. You will have to experiment a few time probably to ensure that your settings are ideal for your specific design which I won't explain here. One basic rule though, the sharper the angles you have in your design the lower you should make your layer height to ensure waterproofness. Bonus Tip: I love using vase mode with thick nozzles/extrusion width(1mm - 5mm) to give you a very strong and watertight bottle/vase design. Bonus Tip 2: you may want to coat your parts after sanding them with an FDA approved material if you really want to. Note: I cofounded a 3D printing company since 2016 and I'm not new to this field. My first ever print and experience with 3d printing was in 2012. Good luck to all of you who want to delve into this amazing tech 😊

Calling the 3d printed part is disingenuous. It is not a bottle in that it can't hold liquids. It can be used to form a bottle. But if we were to follow the same logic, 3D printing any part of a car means that you printed a car? Last argument:if we remove the water pouch, we don't have any functionality of the water bottle. On the other hand, if we remove the case, well we still have a fully functional water bottle. I am not hating on the realisation, bit call it "make a water bottle using 3d printing" or something.

The futility in all engineering innovations is asking “how do I make this new process/technology to exactly the same as the older process I’m used to and describe in terms of the old process”. It’s an impossible question, and not one we should be asking. Instead we need to be innovating with new ways to achieve an end result. If that means scrapping massive presses for a plastic bag or liner, or whether that’s swapping my wood working hand tools for a machine to allow me to create in batches, then so be it.
