and I responded:
Yes, in its current implementation, the Conveyed-Adherent process is
very similar to the JP5 and the earlier Sparx HotPlot. In fact the
inventor of the JP5, Prof. Charles Thomas of the University of Utah, is a
collaborator with Ennex in the further development of the process and
delivered the paper announcing the process at the Austin Conference in
August. Of course the difference between a machine which requires manual
processing of each layer, and one which runs fully unattended, well, I'll
leave it to you whether this is a significant difference. The technique of
providing this automation is part of the subject of our first patent on
the process.
