Abstract
This article presents a soft SMA-driven actuator capable of achieving desired bending angles. To create the actuator, flex sensors and Shape memory alloy (SMA) wires were embedded into the thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) matrix of the sample during the 3D printing process. By deactivating and activating the two SMA wires according to sensing signals from the flex sensors, the actuator sample can track the input bending angle. This approach enabled closed-loop control and improved the overall efficiency of the system. Additionally, the proposed manufacturing process provides a simple and cost-effective solution for the rapid prototyping and custom design of smart materials with complex structures and high resolutions.
