The new fast 3D printing technique developed by researchers at EPFL. Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne 3D printing has incredible potential for both research and home uses, but it has some ...

3D printing creates solid objects from the additive process of layering plastics, metal, wood, synthetic fibers, and more. You can 3D-print your own designs using a ...

A new technique enables makers to finely tune the color, shade, and texture of 3D-printed objects using only one material. The method is faster and uses less material than other approaches.

Our take on the state of 3D printing, the ways companies are using it today, and how it's going to revolutionize the future of business. Read now 3D printing transforms spools of plastic filament or ...

It's difficult to build devices that replicate the fluid, precise motion of humans, but that might change if we could pull a ...

LEUVEN, Belgium (Reuters) - 3D printing has already changed the game for manufacturing specialized products such as medical devices but the real revolution will come when designers start to rethink ...

An interesting research project out of MIT shows that it’s possible to embed machine-readable labels into 3D printed objects using nothing more than an FDM printer and filament that is transparent to ...

3D printing is super cool, but it's also super slow -- it would take 115 days to print a detailed, multimaterial object about the size of a grapefruit. A new method allows printing with up to 8 ...

Collaboration will create specialized materials tailor-made for composite-based additive manufacturing NORTHBROOK, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Impossible Objects today announced a joint development ...

Multi-material 3D printing combines the functional properties of different materials (e.g., mechanical, electrical, color) within a single object that is fabricated without manual assembly. However, ...

3D printers are great for rapid prototyping and building low-volume, specialized parts, but they sure can take a while. Today’s 3D printers might be called “3D printers” but really, the print heads ...
