Sequential Support: 3D Printing Dissolvable Support Material for Time-Dependent Mechanisms

In this paper, we propose a different perspective on the use of support material: rather than printing support structures for overhangs, our idea is to make use of its transient nature, i.e. the fact that it can be dissolved when placed in a solvent, such as water. This enables a range of new use ca...
