论文摘要

三维(3D)印刷已成为材料,食品和生命科学研发的强大工具,在该工具中,技术民主化需要发展开源平台。本文中,我们开发了一种可黑客,多功能和模块化的挤出3D打印机,用于软材料,昵称为Printer.hm。多标头模块是基于用于异质构造创建的机器人臂建立的,可以通过加热和紫外线模块等配件调整墨水可打印。与打印机相关的软件旨在接受几何输入,包括计算机辅助设计模型,坐标,方程式和图片,以创建不同特征的印刷品。打印机可以进一步执行多功能操作,例如液体分配,非平面印刷和中距离挑选。通过混音和匹配软件和硬件设置,打印机显示了pH响应性软执行器,基于植物的功能水凝胶和器官宏观动物模型的印刷。整合负担能力和开放设计,我们设想打印机概念,以扩大柔软,生物和可持续材料体系结构的开放创新。

Three-dimensional (3D) printing has emerged as a powerful tool for material, food, and life science research and development, where the technology democratization necessitates the advancement of open-source platforms. Herein, we developed a hackable, multi-functional, and modular extrusion 3D printer for soft materials, nicknamed Printer.HM. Multi-printhead modules are established based on a robotic arm for heterogeneous construct creation, where ink printability can be tuned by accessories such as heating and UV modules. Software associated with Printer.HM were designed to accept geometry inputs including computer-aided design models, coordinates, equations, and pictures, to create prints of distinct characteristics. Printer.HM could further perform versatile operations, such as liquid dispensing, non-planar printing, and pick-and-place of meso-objects. By mix-and-match software and hardware settings, Printer.HM demonstrated printing of pH-responsive soft actuators, plant-based functional hydrogels, and organ macro-anatomical models. Integrating affordability and open design, we envisage the Printer.HM concept to widen open innovations for soft, biological, and sustainable material architectures.
