About

Tom Greig’s research focuses on advancing the manufacturing of electronic textiles (e-textiles), with a particular emphasis on dispenser printing techniques. His major contribution lies in the precise control of nozzle height during the printing process, a critical factor for producing reliable, high-quality e-textiles. In his most-cited work, “Investigation of Nozzle Height Control to Improve Dispenser Printing of E-Textiles” (2021), Greig demonstrated that maintaining a nozzle gap of 50 to 200 micrometers above the substrate is essential for consistent paste deposition, directly addressing a key challenge in prototype and bespoke e-textile fabrication. This finding has practical implications for wearable technology and smart fabrics, where print fidelity impacts device performance. Though his citation count is currently modest at five, Greig’s work is foundational for researchers exploring automated textile manufacturing. His research bridges robotics and materials science, offering a systematic approach to optimizing print parameters. Greig’s contributions are particularly notable for their focus on reproducibility and scalability, making him a rising voice in the field of e-textile production.
