Stanford University engineers develop a 3D printing method that allows quicker printing with multiple resin types

Research engineers at Stanford University have developed a 3D printing method that is "five to ten times faster than the quickest high-resolution printer currently available and is capable of using multiple types of resin in a single object." The team's design research and findings were recently published in Science Advances on September 28, 2022. This work allows for the potential use of thicker resins with "better mechanical and electrical properties," reports Laura Castañón of Stanford News. This breakthrough is a major step forward from the current limitations of the 3D printing process, which can be timely and requires specific materials that can mainly only be used once at a time.  Figure shows print scrips for multimaterial iCLIP.
