Description

A flexible multi-nozzle 3D printing system to fabricate multi-material product has been developed and utilized. It is well known that 3D printing technology has widely been used in various areas such as medical, electronic and food industries. The developed system has a purpose of fabricating multi-material products: bio-scaffolds and multi-layered printed circuit boards. The system consists of hardware(mechanical and dispensing units) and software(shape modeling and plotting path generation). It is currently used for fabrication of bio-scaffolds and PCB products, which is expected to be applied to fabrication of other kinds of products
