In response to a heightened awareness of climate change as well as sustainability goals and regulations associated with it, 3D printing is steadily being used for more sustainable manufacturing. This ...
CNC or 3D printing? Why not both? Hybrid approaches combine subtractive and additive manufacturing processes to deliver precise outputs at greater speeds. In this piece, we’ll break down the basics of ...
Additive manufacturing has revolutionized manufacturing by enabling customized, cost-effective products with minimal waste.
Additive manufacturing enthusiasts, about 10 years ago, described a dream where 3D printing rose from rapid prototyping and design into a large-scale production technology. In 2024, financial ...
Technology is funny. What seems cutting-edge today will eventually be outdated and replaced by the “next big thing,” or a better version of the now-outdated thing. Vinyl records gave way to ...
What if you could create a fully-formed, intricately detailed 3D object in the time it takes to brew a cup of coffee? It sounds like science fiction, but with volumetric 3D printing, this is now a ...
The newly announced H2D has a lot more going on than just 3D printing. It's a manufacturing menagerie that could lead to creative new ideas. But does it all work together? James has been writing about ...
We’ve come a long way from the Vacanti mouse. Back in the mid-90s, Charles Vacanti and other researchers experimented with cartilage regeneration and, with the help of a biodegradable mold and bovine ...
New manufacturing techniques could improve heat exchangers in everything from air conditioners to massive ships. A new 3D-printed design could make an integral part of cooling systems like air ...
