Extrusion-based additive manufacturing system for 3D structural electronic, electromagnetic and electromechanical components/devices

摘要

The present invention provides a system and method for making a three-dimensional electronic, electromagnetic or electromechanical component/device by: (1) creating one or more layers of a three-dimensional substrate by depositing a substrate material in a layer-by-layer fashion, wherein the substrate includes a plurality of interconnection cavities and component cavities; (2) filling the interconnection cavities with a conductive material; and (3) placing one or more components in the component cavities.
