Design of a Resistive Plate Chamber using additive manufacturing
Driven by the recent improvement in additive manufacturing technologies, we designed a detector that can be fully printed with a standard and commercial 3D printer. The main goals of this research concern the marginal design and construction costs, the reproducibility/modularity of the products, and the reduced assembly time. During the first phase of this research, after determining the most suitable material, we produced 10 examples of detectors.
