3D design and printing make for a powerful combination in the world of furniture. Thanks to additive manufacturing, it is now possible to turn creative concepts into functional pieces using almost any material and reducing production times. In this article,…

We no longer need to explain why additive manufacturing is so popular in the medical sector: examples and applications abound, and the benefits are very real. But beyond these use cases, a more transformative trend is emerging: the direct integration…

Long known for its versatile digital fabrication machines—which combine 3D printing, CNC machining, and laser engraving in a single device—Snapmaker has been undergoing a significant strategic shift in recent years. Following the success of its Snapmaker 2.0 and Artisan models,…

Are we seeing a new trend in additive manufacturing? Just last week, we told you about Apple’s new products and their use of this technology. This week, it’s Chinese manufacturer OPPO’s turn, as the company has announced a new foldable…

In the rapidly evolving world of 3D capture, creators and professionals have long been forced to choose between the convenience of smartphone apps and the exorbitant cost of industrial-grade equipment. While smartphone LiDAR apps have made spatial scanning accessible, they…

For the fifth year in a row, IBM’s X-Force Threat Intelligence Index 2026 found that manufacturing remains the most targeted industry for cyberattacks. The sector accounted for 27.7% of incidents, only a slight increase from 26% last year. And the…

Metal additive manufacturing is advancing fast, but for researchers, the most important questions are still open. How do printing parameters influence microstructure and final mechanical performance? What does process control actually look like in a metal extrusion system? And how…

3D modeling is now at the heart of many industries, from video games and animation to additive manufacturing. However, it is not always easy to implement and can sometimes be ill-suited to real-world conditions. This is precisely the challenge that…
