2D vs 3D Electrodes

2D printing is fast and affordable for simple visuals and disposable tech, while 3D printing offers flexibility and high performance for advanced, custom applications.

2D vs 3D Electrodes
  • Performance of Electrodes

2D printing is fast, affordable, and great for creating everyday tech like sensa-chips, simple, flat components with practical use. But when it comes to smarter, stronger, and more responsive devices, 3D printing shines. It builds detailed, high-performance electrodes for advanced tools like power-cells and bio-implants, designed with depth, care, and innovation.

  • Cost Effectiveness

Think of 2D printing as quick and budget-friendly, perfect for high-volume needs like basic sensors and printed electronics. 3D printing, while a bit pricier, offers creative freedom and functional beauty. It’s ideal for projects that require precision, personalization, and performance, like modern batteries, smart wearables, or custom medical tools.

  • Use-Case Comparison

2D printing gives you clean, flat visuals great for floor plans, diagrams, and info sheets. It’s simple, efficient, and gets the job done. 3D printing, however, brings ideas to life. From lifelike models to immersive prototypes, it adds shape, feel, and experience perfect when you want your ideas to truly stand out.
