Depending on the kind of sample being transported, the pigs may have two or three layers of containment, including a shielding layer, followed by a sealed outer canister that transports the samples--it is the outer layer that is to be 3D-printed, but further down the line the shielding layers could be printed, too.
Pigs get a makeover: pipe inspection gauges have long been used to clear transmission pipelines, and now innovations in the technology are promising more specialisation and greater efficiency
