Digitale Lehre: This course will be held in the summer semester 2020 as digital teaching. Digital teaching starts at the TU Darmstadt in KW 17 (from 20.04.2020). Digital teaching will take place on the days of the week and at the times specified in TUCaN. The room details for the individual dates in TUCaN, if available, represent the original presence planning and are to be ignored at present. The TU Darmstadt uses the video conferencing system ZOOM for digital teaching. You can test the technical requirements here: https://zoom.us/test . If the number of participants is manageable, you can make enquiries directly. Switch on the microphone and ask your question. After the question, please set the microphone to mute again. Disturbing or anonymous participants will be excluded from the current course. In the lecture you will experience several lecturers, including guest lectures from the industry. Please assume that each lecturer will design the digital lecture slightly differently. The current presentation will be uploaded as a PDF file to moodle no later than the evening before the course. The course will be recorded by us. Our goal is to make the recording available to you. At the moment the technical requirements are still being clarified at the TU Darmstadt. In case of technical problems with the transmission bandwidth of ZOOM (which is to be expected with many parallel lectures and other uses), you can have a look at the lecture again later. If the corona crisis requires it, the oral exams will also be held via ZOOM.
Lehrinhalte: Digitization is everywhere, also in printing technology. The trend goes to digital printing technologies like inkjet printing. Imagine you could use your office inkjet printer at home (the one that uses ink cartridges, not laser) for 3D printing of a human organ for biomedical applications! What do you need to change on your office printer to be able to do so? What kinds of inkjet printheads, inks and substrates do you need to use? What else do you have to take care of (temperature control, drying of the ink, electrical control unit)? In other words: How do you apply inkjet printing for digital fabrication? Within the lecture, all of these questions are addressed and discussed. Students are introduced to digital printing techniques and the different principles of inkjet printing (piezo, thermal, drop-on-demand etc.). They learn the theory and models behind inkjet printing: How does an inkjet printhead produce small droplets? What are typical properties of inkjet inks and how can you describe them? The design of typical inkjet printheads is explained. Another topic of the lecture are fluid-substrate interactions: What happens when a droplet hits the substrate e.g. paper? Will the droplet spread on the paper? What does the printed droplet look like when it has dried? With the learned theories, the students will be able to derive simple models for inkjet printing and drop formation. After the lecture, students will know the most important printing parameters and characteristic numbers (Weber number, Ohnesorg number etc.). Another aim of the lecture is to reflect different trends of digital fabrication and to present and discuss possible applications for inkjet printing like biomedical printing, 3D printing and printed electronics (solar cells, OLED-displays etc.).
