3D Printers

The 2022 edition of Formnext is taking place this week in Frankfurt. The international event dedicated to additive manufacturing will be taking place in 50,000 square meters with more than 730 exhibitors gathering. It is undoubtedly a unique opportunity for…

Founded in the United States by Benny Buller, Velo3D is known for its metal additive manufacturing solutions especially in sectors like aerospace. Not only do its solutions essentially eliminate the need for Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM), allowing for less…

Nexa3D was born from a meeting between Avi Reichental, former CEO of 3D Systems, and the inventors of the “Lubricant Sublayer Photo-curing” (LSPc) technology. Interested in the developments of the latter, Reichental decided to create Nexa3D in 2015. And three…

An idea for a ceramic printer on Kickstarter has surpassed its goal by over 1000%. The design, the third on Kickstarter by professional team Cerambot, has gained over €174,000 euros, far beyond its original goal of just over €10,000. This…

One of the trends we have increasingly seen as additive manufacturing industrializes is an increased focus on large-format additive manufacturing. Though this can of course be achieved with large machines, notably those using FDM, robotic arms offer a number of…

More and more companies are deciding to bet on additive manufacturing technologies, as it has been clear for some years now that it is the future of manufacturing. When we talk about 3D technologies, we are not only referring to…

At the end of 2018, HP announced its intention to enter the metal additive manufacturing market. Four years later, its machines are finally available commercially, after being tested by several companies carefully selected by the American manufacturer. This is highly…

Chinese manufacturer RAYSHAPE, known for its DLP 3D printing solutions, continues its expansion in the resin additive manufacturing market. Most recently, it has announced the launch of a new 3D printer, the Edge E1, intended for use in the dental…

Chinese manufacturer Flashforge has announced the launch of a new professional FDM 3D printer, the Guider 3. Designed for the production needs of small and medium-sized businesses, the machine is fast, with a compact and lightweight design to ensure flexible…

If you are interested in the role of 3D printing in the medical sector, you have almost certainly heard of bioprinting. This technique is unique in that it allows for the creation of cellular structures, made from specially designed bioinks…

In a new study, researchers from Rutgers University have outlined what they claim to be a much faster and more precise FFF 3D printing process. The approach is named Multiplexed Fused Filament Fabrication (MF3) and involves a single gantry and…

3D printing is widely used in the field of automation such as in compression molding. It’s a formative manufacturing method, currently popular in industry, that involves compressing the desired amount of molding material between two heated presses to give it…
