3D Printer Combines Silicones and High-Performance Plastics
optimizing the special 3D printer so that it can process high-performance plastics. At the same time, they are developing a new type of silicone-processing module. In the next step, they will create – for [...] 3D multiprint printer is still standing “bare” in the workshop of the Department of Mechanical Engineering on North Campus: a cube with an edge length of about two meters. Wires, rows of screws, a sign [...] thermoplastics, but also high-performance plastics and silicones, in a single, seamless production process. “One example of a concrete application is an artificial limb,” says Philipp Kemper. “If a person …
