The 3D printed prosthetic The prosthetic works through sensors that are placed on the wearer's muscles. These send out an electric signal that allows the hand to move when specific muscles are flexed.

DLP 3D printer is an attractive tool to fabricate PDMS mold masters and microfluidic device substrates due to its fast-printing speed, high resolution, capability to create complex 3D structures and smooth printed surface.

As far as polymers are concerned, the most popular additive manufacturing processes are photopolymerization, material jetting, powder bed fusion, and material extrusion. The materials used in these processes can be in the form of liquid, powder, or solid (formed materials such as polymer film or filament).

Industrial Manufacturing and Construction For civil engineers, polymer 3D printing offers a way to quickly produce prototypes of bridges, roads, and other structures. The technology is also used to create full-scale models of proposed buildings and structures.
