The Artemis II mission launched on April 1, carrying four astronauts on the first crewed flight around the Moon in more than half a century. On board was the Universal Waste Management System (UWMS), the first functional toilet to travel…

Researchers at the University of Missouri College of Engineering have successfully 3D printed an artificial human brain phantom. This has the potential to reshape how scientists study neurological conditions, train medical professionals, and develop personalized treatment tools. The model is…

From reconnaissance to strike missions, 3D-printed drones are moving from the factory floor to the front lines. Across the U.S. Army, Marine Corps, and allied forces, additive manufacturing is enabling soldiers to build, repair, and adapt UAVs exactly where and…

A robot that behaves like a living being but has no sensors. That moves without software. That makes decisions without a “brain.” This is the latest breakthrough by Professor Daniela Kraft at Leiden University (Netherlands). Recently published under the title…

The market for 3D-printed prosthetics continues to grow, as additive manufacturing offers unique opportunities in terms of customization, comfort, and cost. It allows for components tailored to each person’s anatomy—all more quickly and at unbeatable prices. This makes these prosthetics…

A metal 3D printer for under €10,000 might sound like a pipe dream, but one Dutch engineer is turning it into a reality. Thomas Martinus Gerardus Bakker, a specialist in mechatronics engineering and system design, has developed the Metal 1.0.…

What started as a way to create small rewards for students has evolved into a research project pushing the boundaries of FDM 3D printing. At FILDZ Research, experimentation is at the core of the process. By rethinking design and toolpaths,…

Have you heard of the German firm AMPOWER? Every year, it publishes a report on the additive manufacturing market that analyzes its revenue trends and provides growth forecasts. The latest edition has just been released, and the outlook for 2025…
