When 3D printing is well known and is dramatically changing people's lives, 4D printing technology has quietly appeared in front of us and has become an important driving force for industrial change. It is well known that products made with 3D printing cannot be moved. If there is no human intervention, they will remain the same and can't do anything. However, 4D printing is different. The products can respond to environmental stimuli and adapt to changes in the environment. Change its shape, color and size according to the previously planned design.
“Time†is the fourth dimension of the object after length, width and height. The object can move, deform or change its properties at any time as time changes. The same 4D printed product can also be designed to change with time. And changes, products made with materials that have "memory functions", can remember their original shape, and when they reach a certain temperature, they can be restored to their original state, so that technicians can Materials are applied to more fields.
4D products have broad prospects
Whether it is German Industry 4.0, American Industrial Internet, or "Made in China 2025", no matter which industrial production mode, in the process of industrial production, a large amount of assembly costs are required, and 4D printing is introduced into the process of industrial production. It can eliminate the assembly cost and greatly reduce the production cost of the product. 4D printing technology can produce the products that customers need according to the needs of users, meet the individual needs of users, and realize personalized customization, so that enterprises can also manufacture in real time according to the needs of customers, without the need for raw material hoarding, enterprises will also Don't worry about the problem of capital chain melting, and reduce the pressure on capital operation.
Medical applications for 4D printers
Now 4D printers are mainly used in the medical field. Ghost Axe Series - Medical Grade 4D Printer is a professional printer for printing biodegradable biomaterials. It can print precision to micrometers and is suitable for printing on a variety of biomaterials. It is mainly used for high-precision cardiac coronary stents, bile ducts, and intestines. Production of human stents such as tracts and bone supports. The stent produced has the characteristics of memory initial shape and has the characteristics of customized time. Compared with the traditional metal stent, after being unclogged, it can be gradually decomposed into water and carbon dioxide, and finally disappears completely, and can prevent blood vessel restenosis. Avoid the formation of stent thrombosis.
