Last year, a design team in Taiwan designed an instant business card printing machine called "One Business Card". It is micro-sized and used for rapid typesetting and printing of business cards.
This is not a black technology product, but its significance is that it follows one of the four great inventions of ancient China, "movable type printing", and is launched on a well-known crowdfunding website in Taiwan3 Within hours, NT$5.2 million was collected, which shows how popular the program is.
This product has also won relevant design awards in Japan and Taiwan.
Recently, the team has made another new achievement, which is also based on papermaking, one of Chinas four great inventions. Based on the technology, a simple "paper machine" was designed.
This product is a simplified papermaking set that streamlines the traditional and complicated papermaking process and incorporates the concept of paper recycling, allowing you to make paper by hand at home and experience your own DIYPaper fun.
Recycle useless paper towels, newspapers, express boxes and other waste paper to recycle paper, which is environmentally friendly and allows you to experience the craftsmanship of ancient traditional papermaking.
Paper made from waste paper can be used for various writing purposes.
Printed with fonts, it becomes a variety of practical sticky notes.
Made into coasters
Cut the made hard paper into various exquisite patterns.
This paper machine uses a layered papermaking frame, uses waste paper as raw material, and simplifies the papermaking process into: soaking paper, beating, demolding, dryingThese steps of drying and making paper can be easily completed at home.
The papermaking frame is divided into two layers. The upper layer has a mesh structure and the lower layer has a metal orifice plate to form a water filtering effect. This layered design can effectively prevent sticking.
It uses an industrial-grade water-absorbent sheet with a thickness of only 9mm. The water absorption capacity is 4 times greater than that of absorbent paper on the market. It can absorb water at the same time under pressure, shortening the production time.
The simplified process greatly reduces the reliance of traditional papermaking on the craftsmanship of the master, and also reduces the defective rate of paper, while retaining the essence of ancient craftsmanship to the greatest extent.
There is also a patented template technology designed by the team, which can freely replace the template according to needs and easily produce paper of different shapes.
