Successful 3D Printing!

Failed 3D Print

Henry Gu and Wuyan Li

Something was wrong with our design file that resulted in this. We also need to increase the size of our design for the printer to produce the small details on the sides of the staple.

The image looks very blurry and dark due to an issue with the CCI Camera that day.

Feedback

Wuyan Li and Henry Gu
  1. Consider certain measurements for effective testing results. This includes how to measure pain, efficiency, and ultimately the strength of the staple. We can think of certain ways to obtain fake epithelial tissue for testing.
  2. We also have to consider the removal, as a robust grip on the skin also means a pain in the rear end to remove. Therefore, we are thinking about using certain materials that will degrade and disappear over time as the tissue heals.
  3. Continue to consider about the hybrid project.
