Abstract: Developing manufacturing methods for flexible electronics will enable and improve the large-scale production of flexible, spatially efficient, and lightweight devices. Laser sintering is a ...

We are all used to Fused Deposition Modeling, or FDM, 3D printers. A nozzle squirts molten material under the control of a computer to make 3D objects. And even if they’re usually rather expensive ...

At present there is no metallic ink that enables formation of conductive patterns at room temperature by a single printing step. Printing conductive features by metallic nanoparticle-based inks must ...

Abstract: The microstructure, thickness, porosity, and shear performance of the silver (Ag) sintering layers under different sintering pressures were investigated. Experimental results demonstrated ...

The cold sintering process (CSP) is a low-temperature consolidation method used to fabricate materials and their composites by applying transient solvents and external pressure. In this ...

In recent years, the metal additive manufacturing segment has experienced a strong growth, explained in great part by the arrival of players who wanted to make it more accessible to users. These ...

When developing and producing components, relatively optimum designs or manufacturing conditions must be found, especially against the backdrop of price pressure and quality requirements. We say ...
