3D printing news

3D printing is transforming drug manufacturing, offering customized solutions that improve treatments and the patient experience. Traditionally, bespoke medicines have been prepared using magistral preparations, a manual, laborious and error-prone process. However, 3D printing is emerging as a promising technology…

The importance of artificial intelligence to optimize processes in Industry 5.0 is becoming increasingly evident. Even in the field of additive manufacturing (AM), we have seen a number of applications for AI, especially in software enhancement. From design to manufacturing,…

Suffice to say, it has not been the smoothest sailing for the 3D printing market in the past year or so. This has particularly been the case for some of the largest companies in the sector, who have faced layoffs…

What do you do if you want to enter into additive manufacturing without prior experience or an industrial 3D printer? Or experiment to see if 3D printing is the best fit for an application? Why, you go to an AM…

Some of construction 3D printing’s greatest benefits include that the technology can often build structures faster and cheaper than traditional building methods. That said, it is logical to adopt the technology for social housing. In Grange Close, Ireland, the company…

In this week’s Top 5, we first feature a 3D Interview with artha France, a French startup that designed a device for the blind and visually impaired. Second, we have a video from Polymaker on its new material, a co-polymer…

When you purchase resin for vat photopolymerization, do you ever think about where that resin came from? Even if there’s a brand name on the label that coincides with the printer you are using, there is a chance that the…

American firm Supernova has been selected to receive a $2 million subcontracting contract awarded by the American Center for Manufacturing & Innovation (ACMI). The goal of this agreement is to enable Supernova to advance 3D printing of military-grade energetic materials…

The success of a 3D print depends largely on the machines and materials you use, but that’s not all. The accessories and tools you have also play a key role in the 3D printing process. There are specific options that…

Thanks to machine learning and 3D printing, researchers at the University of Toronto have developed nano-architected materials that combine the strength of carbon steel with the lightness of polystyrene foam. 3D printing, which facilitates the creation of such innovative materials,…

Osteosarcomas are malignant bone tumors, and there are two to three new cases per million people per year. It is the most common primary malignant bone tumor, and 50 percent of cases occur in children and adolescents. The treatment of…

In recent years, there has been growing interest in 3D printing automation, particularly in print farms and professional environments looking to optimize their processes and reduce the need for intervention. The Vertigo MK1, currently campaigning on Kickstarter, promises to provide…
