With this technology, tiny structures on a nanometer scale can be fabricated. Researchers at the Vienna University of Technology (TU Vienna) have now made a major breakthrough in speeding up this printing technique: The high-precision-3D-printer at TU Vienna is orders of magnitude faster than similar devices (see video). This opens up completely new areas of application, such as in medicine.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.physorg.com\/newman\/gfx\/news\/2012\/1-3dprinterwit.jpg\" alt=\"3D-printer with nano-precision\" align=\"center\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A model of St. Stephen&#8217;s Cathedral, Vienna.
