Guided droplet deposition: Microfabrication of advanced materials. The progress of micro and nanofabrication is opening an array of new opportunities with a new degree of freedom for manufacturing. This process will complement the existing micromanufacturing facilities in Melbourne. While metal printing and deposition of polymers is presently available, the guided droplet deposition will extend current capabilities to include ceramics and high melting temperature metals.

The progress of micro and nanofabrication is opening an array of new opportunities with a new degree of freedom for manufacturing. This process will complement the existing micromanufacturing facilities in Melbourne. While metal printing and deposition of polymers is presently available, the guided droplet deposition will extend current capabilities to include ceramics and high melting temperature metals. Direct application to medical devices will provide a more effective surface for improved performance and allow the incorporation of smart and sensor materials for multifunctional devices.
