Abstract:Additive manufacturing (AM) has drawn significant attention in the fabrication of soft actuators due to its unique capability of printing geometrically complex parts. This research presents the design and development of an AM process for bioinspired, deformable, and magnetic stimuli-responsive actuator arms. The actuator arms were fabricated via the material extrusion-based AM process with magnetic particle-polymer composite filaments. Inspired by the rhombus cellular structure found in nature, different desig… Show more
