[ HYDROGEL ]


HY / 5001
Renderings of New Version

HYDROGEL is an open-source, accessible 3D printer for printing one or two part liquids in a granular gel medium. A newer form of additive manufacturing, hydrogel printing shows promise in bioprinting, soft robotics, and large-scale manufacturing. Designed around an affordable delta style printer, this project looks to solve some of the issues facing liquid printing technology and create community engagement to push this area of research forward. The proof of concept was built at the Autodesk BUILD Space and was based around the CR10. It had some flaws (see the picture below) that I’m addressing in the next iteration.
