Additive Manufacturing of Flexible Material for Pneumatic Actuators Application

Additive Manufacturing of Flexible Material for Pneumatic Actuators Application

In this paper, endurance of peristaltic linear pneumatic actuators was studied using different hose geometries. Towards this goal, different hose geometries were additively manufactured using Fused Layer Manufacturing techniques of Thermoplastic Polyurethane Elastomer. Material properties of the ela...
