A touch substrate manufactured by three-dimensional printing and a method for manufacturing the same are disclosed. The method for manufacturing the touch substrate works together with a three-dimensional printer. The three-dimensional printer includes a first nozzle, a second nozzle, and a light source. The method includes the steps of: jetting a photocuring material by the first nozzle and exposing the photocuring material to the light source to form a base layer; jetting a conductive material on the base layer by the second nozzle and exposing the conductive material to the light source to form a touch electrode layer; and jetting the photocuring material on the base layer and the touch electrode layer by the first nozzle and exposing the photocuring material to the light source to form a protective layer. The touch electrode layer is embedded between the base layer and the protective layer.

A ribbon liquefier comprising an outer liquefier portion configured to receive thermal energy from a heat transfer component, and a channel at least partially defined by the outer liquefier portion, where the channel has dimensions that are configured to receive the ribbon filament, and where the ribbon liquefier is configured to melt the ribbon filament received in the channel to at least an extrudable state with the received thermal energy to provide a melt flow. The dimensions of the channel are further configured to conform the melt flow from an axially-asymmetric flow to a substantially axially-symmetric flow in an extrusion tip connected to the ribbon liquefier.

A three-dimensional model built with an extrusion-based digital manufacturing system, and having a perimeter based on a contour tool path that defines an interior region of a layer of the three-dimensional model, where at least one of a start point and a stop point of the contour tool path is located within the interior region of the layer.

Preform assembly for blow moulding a container, comprising at least a first and a second perform, wherein the first perform is positioned inside the second perform before blow moulding the performs into the container, wherein each perform has a body forming portion having a wall thickness of less than about 8 millimetres, preferably less than about 6 mm.

Disclosed is a bionic fiber-reinforced composite material with high impact resistance and a preparation method thereof. Bionic fiber composite material is composed of positive and negative spiral fiber resin layers, which are alternately laid in a particular proportion and then heated and cured under pressure. The positive and negative spiral fiber resin layers are non-coaxial and uniformly rotated and stacked along their respective central axes periodically. The bionic fiber resin layer is formed by infiltrating a structurally bionic fiber material with a modified resin. The bionic structures include a scorpion claw structure, a jaw foot structure of mantis shrimp and a combined structure in the horn sheath of small tail Han sheep and pheasant feathers. Significantly, bionic fiber-reinforced composite material effectively improves the impact resistance and interlayer toughness of the fiber composite material by undergoing the combinatorial bionics of the structure of fiber material and the layering method.

In a method of making pixelated scintillators, an amorphous scintillator material in a molten state is pressed into a plurality of cavities defined by a plurality of walls of a mesh array. The molten scintillator material in the plurality of cavities is cooled to form a pixelated scintillator array. An x-ray imager including a pixelated scintillator is also described.

The present invention provides a microchannel chip including: a resin substrate in which a channel groove is formed on at least one surface of the resin substrate; and a resin film which has a base layer and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and is bonded to the resin substrate such that the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer covers the channel groove, in which when a thickness of the base layer of the resin film is defined as X (μm), and a thickness of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer of the resin film is defined as Y (μm), all of Relational Expressions (1) to (3) are satisfied.
