Double Your Printing Fun with Dual-Light 3D Printing

  • Researchers at the University of Texas at Austin are exploring a new concept of dual-light 3D printing using a resin with different physical properties when cured with different light wavelengths.
  • The resin cures into a rubbery material with violet light and a rigid material with ultraviolet light, inspired by natural constructions like bone and cartilage.
  • Test prints of bio-analog materials show promising results, with the dual-light method allowing for better natural connections between materials, reducing delamination risks.
  • The research presents potential for customizable properties in 3D-printed objects by controlling the curing process with light frequencies, offering intriguing possibilities for various applications like tunable laser projects.
