3D printing news

At the Military Additive Manufacturing Summit (MILAM) in Tampa, one theme surfaced repeatedly across panel discussions and conversations with defense officials and industry leaders. The question is no longer whether additive manufacturing works. It is whether the systems around it…

While currently speculative, rumors suggest Apple is accelerating its adoption of additive manufacturing, specifically metal and aluminum 3D printing, across its product lineup. Building on last year’s successful use of 3D-printed titanium for the Apple Watch and the iPhone Air’s…

As additive manufacturing moves into production, the conversation is starting to change. Instead of asking whether a part can be printed, manufacturers are asking whether they can print it the same way every time. More often than expected, the answer…

On February 3, as the Mercury One satellite passed over Earth, a small box released a titanium spring with a simple yet disruptive movement. This was the JPL Additive Compliant Canister (JACC), a technology demonstration developed by NASA’s Jet Propulsion…

When does resin printing move from a prototype to a production asset? Can SLA patterns actually survive the burnout process in a high-stakes foundry? How does the cost-per-part on an SLA system compare to traditional tooling at scale? If you…

Additive manufacturing promises lighter parts, complex geometries and faster production for aerospace. But in aviation, printing a component is the easy part. Proving it will survive in operation is what determines whether it is ever approved for service. A component…

In the high-stakes world of NASCAR, where championships are won in the margins of milliseconds, the “speed to track” is as critical as the speed on it. LEGACY MOTOR CLUB, the team co-owned by legends Jimmie Johnson and Richard Petty,…

Not long ago, one engineer could take an additive manufacturing project from design file to finished part. That’s changed. As the technology has scaled, so has the number of people it takes to run it and the range of skills…

Over the past decade, Raise3D has established itself as a key player in professional polymer 3D printing. Initially known for its FDM systems, the company has progressively expanded its portfolio to address a wider range of industrial needs, entering the…

The twelfth edition of TCT Asia, the leading event for the additive manufacturing industry in the Asia-Pacific region, is almost here! This year’s summit will host a wide range of technologies, presented by over 550 exhibitors. The atmosphere is designed…

On the Moon, nothing is easy to replace. Every tool, spare part and structural component must be launched from Earth, with a very high price tag. (There’s no Amazon Prime on the Moon.) The solution, researchers from The Ohio State…

Manufacturing Technology Project (MTP) is an American start-up dedicated to developing engineering tools. These tools combine artificial intelligence, multiphysics simulation, and digital twins to optimize manufacturing processes and predictive modeling, with the ultimate goal of offering autonomous production control. Its…
