3D Printers

After weeks in pre-launch, HeyGears has set a date. The HeyGears G1 Series goes live today on Kickstarter, with the campaign opening at 12:00 PM EDT (9:00 AM PDT, 4:00 PM GMT, 6:00 PM CEST). The launch brings the G1…

ugee, known for its drawing tablets and digital creation tools, is moving into additive manufacturing. The company’s first 3D printer is built specifically for kids aged 4 to 12, though it’s really aimed at anyone who wants a machine that…

Additive manufacturing users are increasingly looking for technical materials that meet their requirements and constraints. As a result, we have seen the materials market grow exponentially in recent years, with the aim of offering higher-performance solutions. This is true, for…

The modern workshop of a professional creator can be a fragmented landscape. It is common to see a resin printer occupying a corner, a separate UV machine sitting nearby for surface decoration, and a manual post-processing station for cleaning supports.…

Today, Formlabs announced the release of a new large-format SLS ecosystem that delivers same-day production-quality parts at 50% lower cost and 3x the throughput of competing systems. The ecosystems are being sold starting at $84,999, and are currently available for…

Additive manufacturing has spread all over the globe, especially in the United States, where it all started. From 1987 when stereolithography was first introduced by Chuck Hull to the advent of the first metal AM technologies in the 1990s, AM…

In the world of technology, 3D printing can sometimes feel like science fiction. But while we’ve grown used to watching printers lay down layer after flat layer, a new technique has been catching our attention: multi-axis 3D printing. By breaking…

Today, Bambu Lab is launching the A2L, a machine they are referring to as the “Creative Playground.” The company shared that this large-format 3D printer was designed for ambitious creative projects that previously required splitting large models into multiple pieces.…

Metal additive manufacturing has long been associated with high costs and complex infrastructure, keeping the technology out of reach for all but the largest industrial players. A new generation of manufacturers is now working to change that. Among them is…

At RAPID + TCT 2026 this year, Mastrex is tackling one of the biggest barriers in metal additive manufacturing: cost. While laser powder bed fusion has long delivered high-performance parts in materials like titanium and Inconel, the price of entry…

Once an exclusive tool for high-budget labs, selective laser sintering (SLS) has become a practical solution for modern manufacturing. The technology uses a laser to fuse plastic powder layer-by-layer, and historically, it was sidelined by high costs and operational complexity.…

A metal 3D printer for under €10,000 might sound like a pipe dream, but one Dutch engineer is turning it into a reality. Thomas Martinus Gerardus Bakker, a specialist in mechatronics engineering and system design, has developed the Metal 1.0.…
