Advances in 3D printing functional polymeric devices

Three-dimensional printing, or additive manufacturing, has emerged as a transformative technology capable of producing complex, customizable structures directly from computer-aided design models. Its ...
With electronics becoming smaller, more tightly packaged, and subjected to more demanding conditions, 3D printing technology continues to prove itself as a viable alternative to traditional ...
Researchers produced 3D-printed, semiconductor-free logic gates, which perform computations in active electronic devices. As they don't require semiconductor materials, they represent a step toward 3D ...
Whether its connectors, sensors, or advanced packaging components, the ongoing trend for miniaturization represents one of the foremost challenges for today’s electronics designer. Add to that, the ...
Additive manufactured electronics (AME) brings significant advantages such as increased functionality and design flexibility to developers. Devices like 3D printers are just one way to incorporate AME ...
All-around the P2S is simply the best 3D printer to own. The quality, speed, and accuracy are above reasonable expectations.
Researchers from Rice University, University of Utah and National University of Singapore (NUS) published “Three-dimensional printing of nanomaterials-based electronics with a metamaterial-inspired ...
If it's possible to 3D print blood vessels, robots, and guns, then why shouldn't you be able to 3D print your own personal electronics? Well, now you can -- in the lab at least. University of Warwick ...
Space Foundry printed electrodes that could be used in space-based biological and chemical sensors on parabolic flights in Nov. and Dec. 2021 and June 2022. As NASA prepares to send astronauts back to ...
Electronics such as Bluetooth speakers can be 3D-printed from a material that dissolves in water within hours. That allows designers to rapidly create prototypes, enables easier recycling of the ...
This a robot can walk, without electronics, and only with the addition of a cartridge of compressed gas, right off the 3D-printer. It can also be printed in one go, from one material. Imagine a robot ...
There's more to 3D printing than cracking the build plate and calling it a day.
