Engineers have developed a new soft magnetic hydrogel that can be 3D-printed into microscopic structures.

Researchers developed 3D printed, muscle-inspired magnetic actuators that push, pull, crawl, and grasp. The research paper describes a family of soft actuators that convert applied magnetic fields ...

Researchers from MIT, EPFL, and the University of Cincinnati have developed a 3D-printed soft magnetic hydrogel enabling microscopic robots to move and deform independently under magnetic control. The ...

Have you ever wondered how induction cooking works? A rotating magnetic field — electrically or mechanically — induces eddy currents in aluminum and that generates heat. When [3D Sage] learned this, ...

Permanent magnets aren’t typically switchable. They’re always doing their magnet thing. However, if you align them with a bunch of other magnets in just the right way, you can create a permanent ...

(Nanowerk News) Physicists at the Ural Federal University (UrFU, Ekaterinburg, Russia) will print unique magnets, magnetic systems, soft magnetic elements with a 3D printer. Samples made with this ...
