Purdue EPAM Process for 3D Printing

Caption

Purdue University researchers have combined 3D printing and electric poling into a single process called electric poling-assisted additive manufacturing, or EPAM. It aligns the dipoles in PVdf filament during the printing, which leads to a better indication of the stress being applied. (Purdue University image/Robert Nawrocki)
