UTURE
Initiative of Manabe Lab
We interviewed Mr. Suzuki, a fourth-year university student, and Prof. Manabe about the "Fabrication method for the double sided print circuit board using a 3D printer and conductive transfer foil."
The research conducted by Mr. Suzuki creates a future in which individuals can make substrates.

Once the technology is established, individuals will have more chances to produce many kinds of products.

The gold leaf in the picture conducts electricity. And if this transfer is done by connecting the holes to a board with holes in it, (The figure below)

Electricity flows. In the image above, electricity flows through the holes connected by the silver line (the transferred part). When he transcribes transfer foil, it is impossible to use nozzleA nozzle is a component that extrudes filament (resin) and prints it on the stage. to heat the filament, so the solution of it is that the nozzleA nozzle is a component that extrudes filament (resin) and prints it on the stage. is made into the tip of a ballpoint pen, and transcribe by heat that essentially melts the filament.

Then after transcribing, due run the filament to the connecting hole, completed the double sided print circuit board.
Mr. Suzuki is doing research on this technology.
Once this technology is established, we can make double sided print circuit boards with a 3D printer even at home. We asked Mr. Suzuki the following questions.

What is Manabe Lab?
Here is the introduction of Manabe Lab.
Manabe Lab researches AR, VR, and 3D-printing technology. Everyone who does research here is kind, so we would like to be a member of this lab.

Background of The Interview
Mr. Uchida, a former vice president of DengikenDengiken is the club we belong to. The abbreviation is Dengiken. Each of us has our own project and conducts the research we want to do. in 2019, introduced us to Manabe Lab, Shibaura Institute of Technology.
UTURE
Interview with Mr. Suzuki

We interviewed Mr. Suzuki regarding the research mentioned above on July 8, 2022.

  1. What is your research?
  2. What is the potential of 3D printers?
  3. What is the difficulty in your research?
  4. What career path do you plan to take in the future?

Q.1
What is your research?

A.1
We research
"Fabrication method for double sided print circuit boards using a 3D printer and conductive transfer foil."
Simply put, we develop double sided print circuit boards by adding conductive silver foils with heat.

I took over from my seniors, so I am resarching that research now.

Q.2
What is the potential of 3D printers?

A.2
3D printers have flexibility. We can create many kinds of things at home if we have affordable printers.

Q.3
What is the difficulty in your research?

We are required to do research accurately. It is impossible to make things precisely because we must rely on our eyes. For example, to copy a building, we need to measure the pressure levels of nozzles with a sensor and adjust the pressure levels very carefully.

Place: Manabe Lab

Many cases fail in this way.

Place: Manabe Lab

That is a successful example. However, there is something different between the former one and the second one.

We are required to adjust 1 mm levels. Some marks will appear if the pressure level is too strong, while there will be no marks if the pressure level is low. We often suffer from eye strain because we always look carefully at objects.

Q.4
What career path do you plan to take in the future?

A.4
Umm...
I would like to work in a digital position.

UTURE
Interview with Professor Manabe

We interviewed Prof. Manabe on July 8, 2022.

  1. What made you use 3D printers?
  2. Is it necessary to teach how to use 3D printers in an educational setting?
  3. What will 3D printers be like in the future?

Q.1
What made you use 3D printers?

A.1
I got interested in printed-circuit board processing more than ten years ago. After a while, I realized that the 3D printers we had (or owned) were much more interesting to me than printed-circuit board processing. So, I was always examining the printers. This is how I became an expert in this field.

Q.2
Is it necessary to teach how to use 3D printers in an educational setting?

A.2
Teaching 3D printers to elementary and junior high school students is important. We can foster their abilities to recognize space. Students or beginners can easily understand 3D printers visually and enjoy making them. I want children to learn about this area.

Q.3
What will 3D printers be like in the future?

A.3
3D printers will be much faster.

Let me ask you a question. How do you think printing speed will be faster?

Umm...
I've never thought about it, but maybe adding more output ports... I guess.

There should be some ways to speed it up, such as how to use resin.

“The best way to predict the future is to invent it.”
by Alan Kay

Let’s think that meaning. You may know the road of future.

After The Interview
Think about the words. Creating a future means we must create something we have yet to have.

And as we proceeded with our interviews, we learned various learned of the "difficulties of research" that Mr. Suzuki mentioned. Also, if established that research, I think that revolution takes place in the world. We learned many points of view from the words Prof. Manabe mentioned. We feel his technology will innovate printing industries. It was a great opportunity to reconsider the future of 3D printing technology.

Thank Manabe Lab for interviewing.
