The initiative aims to address the challenges faced in the production of VMS components by leveraging cutting-edge additive manufacturing technologies. Proposals should focus on advancements that enable the rapid, cost-effective, and high-quality production of complex VMS parts. Emphasis is placed on solutions that can integrate with existing manufacturing workflows and meet the stringent requirements of mission-critical applications.
What we're looking for:
Looking for additive manufacturing technologies that can enable the production of personalized VMS (vitamins, minerals, and supplements) for both internal manufacturing optimization and customized consumer experiences.
Must-have requirements are:
- 3D-printing systems for personalized tablet/capsule production
- Systems enabling layered or compartmentalized delivery in a single supplement
- Micro-dosing additive platforms for capsule personalization.
Nice-to-have requirements are:
- Supports individual dose customization of multiple active ingredients within a single unit
- Compatible with VMS raw materials in powder, gel, or semisolid form
- Enables production of ingestible formats such as tablets, capsules, gummies and powder
- Clear rationale for how ingredient integrity will be preserved during manufacturing (e.g., protection from heat, pressure, and/or light)
Out of scope:
- Enables multi-phase or timed-release dosing formats
- Compact or modular design for easier integration into existing operations
