Abstract

Embodiments are directed to nozzles for three-dimensional printing and related assemblies and methods. An example method includes, on a first side of a material, forming a hole into the material to define an at least partially conical inner conduit extending at least partially through the material, and, on a second side of the material, forming a through-hole into the material to define an exit orifice of the nozzle, the exit orifice connecting with the at least partially conical inner conduit to define a fluid pathway through the nozzle.
