3D printing news

3D printing in space is no longer a myth: it’s possible to design 3D parts in such a demanding environment, where gravity presents obvious constraints and obstacles. Numerous projects have demonstrated that it is possible to create a wide variety…

We all have advertisements that have made a lasting impression on us: that music that sticks in our head, that slogan that caught our attention, those characters we associate with a brand. In short, advertising can be very powerful, and…

When we talk about the sectors that have implemented additive manufacturing, the list is long. More and more companies are betting on its adoption in the production chain. We have already seen its use in industries such as automotive, consumer…

Choosing the right slicer is a crucial step in achieving high-quality 3D prints. As the bridge between your 3D model and the printer, slicer software translates designs into precise layer-by-layer instructions. With so many options available—especially for FDM printing—finding the…

Last week, Mercedes-AMG revealed CONCEPT AMG GT XX: a pioneering technology program that offers a look into a forthcoming four-door series-production sports car. A subsidiary of Mercedes-Benz AG, Mercedes-AMG creates high-performance vehicles, typically with better handling and support, more carbon…

Remember the fully 3D-printed sneaker unveiled by adidas last September? Its futuristic design and slim aerodynamic silhouette were particularly striking. It was the start of a new range for the German sporting goods brand, which took the integration of additive…

On June 23, the United Kingdom launched its Modern Industrial Strategy for 2025—a ten-year blueprint aimed at driving investment into the industries of the future. Designed to accelerate business growth and provide long-term stability, the strategy seeks to make it…

In July 2021, Dave Richards’ life changed dramatically during a bike ride with two friends in the UK’s Somerset region. The group of cyclists collided with a drunk driver who was on the phone at the wheel. Dave went under…

When it comes to manufacturing, many tools are required: design software, quality monitoring software, machines, scanning applications, etc. However, these solutions are often disconnected, presenting a challenge for users. The workflow elements do not communicate with each other, which creates…

Top 5 Videos is back! This month, we’re starting with a 3DExplained on how (and why) you could automate your 3D print farms. Then, we shift our focus to design, with our second video spotlighting 3D printed outdoor furniture, and…

Yet again, additive manufacturing is poised to help rockets take flight. In this week’s 3DExpress, read about aerospace company INNOSPACE launching its new advanced manufacturing division, footwear company Koobz’s $7.2 million investment round, a partnership between ASTM International and Nikon…

Once again, artificial intelligence is proving its worth in the 3D printing sector. A team has used AI to develop a 3D model generator capable of synthesizing multiple 3D meshes of different geometries from a single RGB image. Called PartCrafter,…
