A Multi-Material igniter envisioned as a single part, highlighting the different materials needs.

The CAD file shows the value proposition [of Multi-Material 3D printing] – the internal electrically conductive and electrically insulating structures as areas for 3D printing support material.

The igniter is automatically converted into a point cloud by AMAREA® slicing system. Each point represents a position for the 3D deposition of material and indicates by its color the material used by the 3D printer.

The igniter as final part – 3D printed, subsequently sintered and finished by polishing.

Defined porosity via pore former in each deposited material drop or only in selected areas.

Pore size range: 1 - 50 µm

Defined porosity due to
adjusting the material deposition overlap.

Pore size range: ~50 - 100 µm

Defined porosity by selectively depositing support material instead of bulk material.

Pore size range: ~100 - 1000 µm
