A unique new approach of printing functional materials with unparallel precision and repeatability. Technology called Ultra-Precise Deposition (UPD) is a nanodispensing method capable to print high density and high viscous materials with the resolution down to 1 µm in feature size and with high ratio of width to height after single pass. For this method material extrusion is controlled by a pressure, which means it is not supported with high electric field. Thanks to this there are no limitation if the substrate is conductive or dielectric.

Here are some reliable tips to follow if your 3D print simply isn't coming off the print bed and how to prevent the issue in future.
Creality Ender 3 printers and Cura are a perfect match. But you might have to tweak a few Ender 3 Pro Cura settings to get the right results on your 3D printer.
Where one engineer may require a surface that is as reflective as a mirror, another may want a product that absorbs as much light as possible. How do you achieve both material properties?
As 3D printing continues to mature, we look at the technology’s latest trends as well as continuing challenges that must be tackled
Good bed adhesion is key to achieving defect-free prints. But how do you remove 3D prints that are stuck firmly to the build surface of the 3D printer? This guide reveals all.
In this video we start with a recap on why you would choose MJF rather than other 3D printing technologies and explore TPU, looking at the advantages of the material and how it can be used.

To scale up microLED displays to large areas, smaller displays can be titled. Because microLEDs can be truely edge-less devices, the tiling can function, yielding a seemless look.
Stretchable Electronics and inks for durable wearable electronics. These inks can be printed on TPU films which can be bonded to fabrics. This results in devices that stretch without cracking and maintain excellent electrical properties. Examples include biometric sensors & fixed resistance heaters
Silver nanoparticle inks improve every year. These improvements are often incremental, but very important. One ever-present direction of development is towards inks which offer ever higher conductivity levels at a low curing temperature and a short curing time. This a critical figure of merit because it opens more substrate choices, saves time, and lowers energy consumption costs.
The causes behind 3D printing delamination and eight ways to improve inter-layer adhesion for stronger 3D prints.
