Direct Ink Writing (DIW) with Silicone

Liquid silicone is perfect for DIW because its low viscosity allows for precise extrusion of complex structures. Additionally, it cures at low temperatures, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, such as medical devices and soft robotics.

With extensive in-house expertise, Sygnis SA excels in using silicone for DIW. They have successfully partnered with industry leaders to print various items like gasket seals, enclosures for harsh environments, and thermal-insulating sockets.

3D printing with silicone is transforming many industries by leveraging its flexibility, biocompatibility, and durability. In healthcare, medical-grade silicone is used to improve prosthetics and personalized implants. The automotive and aerospace sectors benefit from custom gaskets and seals. Beyond DIW, techniques like direct motor-driven extrusion and inkjet printing with silicone-based inks or pastes are also employed for precise layer-by-layer deposition.
