Layerless fabrication with continuous liquid interface production

Layerless fabrication with continuous liquid interface production.

Despite the increasing popularity of 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing (AM), the technique has not developed beyond the realm of rapid prototyping. This confinement of the field can be attributed to the inherent flaws of layer-by-layer printing and, in particular, anisotropic mechanical properties that depend on print direction, visible by the staircasing surface finish effect. ...

Continuous liquid interface production of 3D objects

19. T. Oka, J. Mol. Spectrosc. 228, 635–639 (2004). 20. Here J denotes the rotational quantum number comprising end-over-end rotation R and internal rotation. 21. P. Bunker, B. Ostojić, S. Yurchenko, J. Mol. Struct. 695–696, 253 (2004). 22. Here we use the quantum number J instead of R, because the rotational motion in the state is not purely the end-over-end rotation. 23. M. Kolbuszewski, P. R...

Single-Step Fabrication of Computationally Designed Microneedles by Continuous Liquid Interface Production

Microneedles, arrays of micron-sized needles that painlessly puncture the skin, enable transdermal delivery of medications that are difficult to deliver using more traditional routes. Many important design parameters, such as microneedle size, shape, spacing, and composition, are known to influence efficacy, but are notoriously difficult to alter due to the complex nature of microfabrication te...

Design and Fabrication of Biodegradable Drug-Eluting Devices Using the 3D Printing Technique Continuous Liquid Interface Production (CLIP)

Mass Customization: Reuse of Topology Information to Accelerate Slicing Process for Continuous Liquid Interface Production

Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, constructs a 3D object in a layer by layer fashion. Comparing to traditional manufacturing technologies, it can build objects with complex individualized features with little extra effort. This characteristic endows additive manufacturing with the potential to realize mass customization. Continuous Liquid Interface Production (CLIP), a new...
