First time in the Middle East, Iranians achieve 3D micro-structure printing technology

An Iranian university professor and a Ph.D. student have managed to achieve the 3D micro-structure printing technology for the first time in the Middle East.

Iran Press/Iran news: An Iranian professor at Sharif University of Technology  Mohammadreza Movahhedi and a Ph.D. student Keyvan Mohammadi have developed a type of 3D micro-structure printer, which only four countries in the world- namely the US, Britain, Switzerland, and Japan- had the technology to produce.

“In the past two decades, 3D printing has revolutionised the manufacturing industry,” said Mohammadi according to ISNA.

“3D printers in micro and nanometer scales are much more complicate compared to the usual macro-scale ones,” he added.

“The super-resolution electrohydrodynamic (EHD) printing has the ability to produce pieces in micron-scale,” the Iranian Ph.D. student continued.

Movahhedi described 3D printing as an emerging one, which he believes will be one of the ten important technologies of the world in the coming years.

“The project concentrates on electrohydrodynamic printing, which is different from previous types and can also be used in the human body,” the Iranian university professor added.

“This technology can be applied to different fields of medicine, aerospace, and car manufacturing industries,” he concluded.
