Self Leveling 3D Print Bed Technology

By Tom Hazzard

WTFFF 305 | Self Leveling 3D Print Bed

If someone makes a slight change to your original design file, would that new file no longer be protected by the original copyright? A recent decision in the Federal Court battle between Align Technologies, makers of Invisalign 3D printed clear braces and a direct competitor ClearCorrect, has established (for now) if digital files and 3D CAD files are considered “articles” within US Patent Law.
