A Sensorized Soft Pneumatic Actuator Fabricated with Extrusion-Based Additive Manufacturing

Soft pneumatic actuators with a channel network (pneu-net) based on thermoplastic elastomers are compatible with fused deposition modeling (FDM). However, conventional filament-based fused deposition modeling (FDM) printers are not well suited for thermoplastic elastomers with a shore hardness (Sh &...
