Recently, researchers at North Carolina State University invented a flexible mesh robot for 3D printing, which is also called a soft robot because of its soft shape. The structure of such a soft robot can be controlled by applying a magnetic field to float on the water. They can grab small objects on the water, so they have the potential to imitate creatures living on the water. To create this structure, the researchers first created an "ink" that was made up of liquid silicone, which produced a "homogeneous complex thixotropic paste" similar to ordinary toothpaste, which is easy to apply. The tube is squeezed out, but the shape is kept on the toothbrush without dripping. The researchers used a 3D printer to shape the paste into a mesh pattern. These patterns are then cured in an oven to form a flexible silicone structure that is ultimately controlled by the application of a magnetic field. In a special issue on Advanced Materials Technology, they showed how they could design such soft structures and demonstrate how they can be used when floating on water and how to shrink and grab objects. It must be said that this research shows the combination of 3D printing technology and intelligent robot phase technology to open up the field of innovation. 28mm PCO 1810/1881 water preform 28Mm Pco 1810/1881 Water Preform,Sai Pet Preforms,28Mm Preform Mold,High Neck Pet Preform Heshan Yecheng Plastic Product , https://www.plasticpreform.com
