PolarFlow
Polar-coordinate printing on a cylindrical bed that scaffolds effectively infinite travel in Cartesian space — aimed at continuous fabrication spanning macro structure and micro substructure (including space).

- Prints in polar form on a cylindrical bed that acts as a moving scaffold, so the substrate can advance without a fixed Cartesian build envelope.
- Goal: continuous (effectively infinite) printing into Cartesian space — not a one-shot box fill.
- Dual-scale ambition: macro physical structure and micro features (e.g. circuits / embedded paths), relevant to in-space fabrication.
- Multi-material / multi-channel melt concepts in the wider PolarFlow integration work.
