• One of the more promising 3D printing technologies that hasn’t quite yet had its spotlight is volumetric 3D printing. • Researchers from the Department of Automation, Tsinghua University, have developed a new method that uses a high-speed periscope instead of rotating the printing volume -resulting in print times of less than one second. • Normal volumetric printing uses a rotating volume of photosensitive resin to print nearly any geometry desired. • However, this method presents issues when printing at high speeds. • If you rapidly rotate a liquid, it won’t exactly stay still. • So why not rotate the projector itself?

Researchers from the Department of Automation, Tsinghua University, have developed a new method that uses a high-speed periscope instead of rotating the printing volume - resulting in print times of less than one second. Normal volumetric printing uses a rotating volume of photosensitive resin to print nearly any geometry desired. However, this method presents issues when printing at high speeds.
