SILK 3D PRINTER
the development of a novel 3D printer designed to produce regenerative silk fibers (RSFs), a sustainable and cruelty-free alternative to traditional silk production.
- Leveraging advanced material science, the printer enables the simultaneous spinning and weaving of RSFs, significantly reducing energy consumption and material waste. Inspired by biomimicry and cutting-edge research, the design incorporates a temperature-controlled vat and a customized peristaltic pump for precise fiber extrusion. The innovative system has potential applications in sustainable fashion, military-grade textiles, and industrial manufacturing, showcasing the transformative possibilities of additive manufacturing in textile production.
