What if a house could be built from sand? At first glance, the idea may seem implausible, and to some extent, it is. However, the Tùr House project is aiming to come remarkably close. Developed by Barry Wark Studio, this…

A research team at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh received $28.5 million in funding from ARPA-H to carry out the LIVE (Liver Immunocompetent Volumetric Engineering) Project. The goal? To manufacture functional liver tissue for patients with acute liver failure using…

Can additive manufacturing be relied on for injection molding when it comes to small-to-medium series production? Molds manufactured via 3D printing often show short life spans when subjected to excessive stress, whether from heat or pressure. Nano Dimension has challenged…

If you’ve ever tried printing an AI-generated 3D model, you know that the experience can come with some obstacles: the 3D model may have an undesirable “AI bumps” (small, irregular imperfections or protrusions), details that are not feasible for your…

Roboze, an Italian manufacturer specializing in 3D printing high-performance polymers and composites, has announced that its ARGO 500 HYPERSPEED and ARGO 1000 HYPERMELT 3D printers have obtained Japanese Nannen-sei certification for ULTEM 9085 material in extrusion processes (filaments and pellets).…

As desktop 3D printing continues to expand across fields such as design, education, dentistry, and small-scale manufacturing, users are increasingly looking for solutions that go beyond hardware alone, with materials, reliability, and workflow simplicity becoming just as important. ANTINSKY operates…

This week’s 3DExpress starts with a breakthrough in Hong Kong, where a team of engineers created the smallest 3D printed sub-micron optoelectronics to date. This could mean that integrating multi-functional micro-nano devices will become a lot easier. Then, we get…

As Japan’s aging population and shrinking construction workforce put growing pressure on the industry, Shimizu Corporation is turning to a new kind of 3D printing. The company has developed a spray-based system designed to fabricate large, curved, and reinforced concrete…

For manufacturers considering an investment in industrial 3D printing, the transition from laboratory testing to high-stakes manufacturing can be a significant hurdle. While prototypes may perform well in controlled environments, scaling production often brings new challenges, such as repeatability, machine…

3D printed implants have already demonstrated huge potential in the surgical space. These implants are customized for patients, can reduce operating times by hours, and improve overall operational success. Today, we’re featuring a company entering that space: OsseoLabs. A finalist…

Billed as a global stage for innovation, the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) returned to Las Vegas this year, taking place from January 6-9. The event brings together technology experts, decision-makers, media, and buyers from across the tech ecosystem, with the…

3D printing is gaining momentum in the sports equipment sector, particularly in cycling. The Dutch brand PRO unveiled its first saddle featuring 3D-printed components: the Stealth 3D. This model uses additive manufacturing to improve rider comfort, optimize pressure distribution, and reduce…
