Massivit is a computer science topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Massivit rather than just read about it. In short: Massivit 3D Printing Technologies Ltd. (Massivit3D) is an Israeli public company traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE:MSVT) Its headquarters are in Lod.

Key takeaways

Massivit belongs to computer science; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Massivit to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Massivit from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Massivit 3D Printing Technologies Ltd. (Massivit3D) is an Israeli public company traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE:MSVT) Its headquarters are in Lod. The company develops, constructs and sells Additive Manufacturing printers for production of large parts and develops printing materials for use in their printers.

History Massivit 3D was founded in 2013 by Gershon Miller, Igor Yakubov and Moshe Uzan. In 1994, Miller established "Idanit" printing, acquired four years later by Scailex Corporation (formerly Scitex) for $60 million. In 1998 he was one of three founders of "Objet", which in 2012 merged with its competitor Stratasys (Nasdaq: SSYS), that had market value of $5.7 billion. In February 2021, By IPO it had raised $50 million. The CEO is Erez Zimerman and the chairman is Yaron Yechezkel. The CBO is Avi Cohen, whom was also working in both Objet and Stratasys for 16 years. Investors includes: institutional investor (including Migdal and Mor Investment House), Stratasys, Yaskawa Electric Corporation and Alpha hedge fund. Among the investors in Masivit are: Tzur Daboosh, the Owner and chairman of the Board Klil Industries, the Japanese electronics corporation, YASKAWA and institutional bodies. Among the members of the company's board of directors is David (Dadi) Perlmutter, who was previously a vice president at Intel.

Products Massivit 3D main markets are: transportation, shipping, entertainment, furniture, construction and aviation. The first generation of the company's printers inject Dimengel, an acrylic-based plastic gel, that polymerized and creates solid layers under ultraviolet light. In 2016, the company launched its first printer, Massivit 1800. In 2021, the company launched Massivit 5000, an improved version of Massivit 1800. It provides a double material method on which two separate parts can be printed concurrently using disparate materials. The second generation of printers, based on Massivit 10000, was developed to manufacture molds for composite material end parts for the fibre-reinforced plastic industry. It enabling production of jigs, molds, master tools, fixtures and mandrels. The process is designed to decrease manual labor and material costs, while reducing tooling time. The product 3D prints an outer, wash away shell with the print head and intermittently fills the shell with a thermoset, epoxy casting material, forming an isotropic mold. The encapsulated mold is immersed in water causing, the outer shell to crumble without redundant pollutants, leaving the mold. In May 2022, the company launched Massivit 10000, that won two prizes: The American Composites Manufacturers Association award in the category 'manufacturing' and the IBEX innovation award in the category 'boatbuilding'. The company sells printers in 40 countries.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Massivit

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Massivit claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In computer science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Massivit before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Massivit ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Massivit

In research: Massivit appears in computer science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Massivit in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Massivit is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 2021 initial public offerings, 3D printer companies, Companies listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Massivit outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
