Inhaltsangabe

3D Printing and 4D Printing require support materials for fabrication, ultimately affecting part quality and limiting applicability. 5D Printing adds dimensions to the layers of 3D Printing, opening previously unheard-of opportunities for efficiency, personalization, resource conservation and circular economy. This cutting-edge technology can play a pivotal role in addressing environmental challenges by minimizing waste, optimizing material usage, and streamlining production processes. The book is a fascinating journey through the evolution of traditional 3D Printing into the fifth dimension. It covers extrusion, metal, and gel-based 5D printing processes and 5D printing processes applicable to polymers and metals primary, secondary and tertiary recycling. This book also highlights rapid tooling in biomedical applications via 5D. 5D Printing is an accessible guide to 5D printing technology for engineering, structural, biomedical, healthcare, and automobile applications and showcases real-world examples of how 5D Printing can contribute to a more eco-friendly and economically viable manufacturing landscape.
