3D Printers

In our Inside 3D Tour video series, we take a look behind the scenes as we go see the most important players in the AM industry. In the past, we visited the headquarters of Stratasys, XJET and EOS, among others. This…

When it comes to choice of a 3D printer, several criteria must be taken into account: which applications it will be used for, the desired printing speed, the final quality of the parts, the quantity to be produced, among others.…

When we talk about 3D printers, many 3D technologies might come to mind. If we focus on FDM 3D printers (fused deposition modeling), we can find different types of machines that aim to achieve different results. FDM technology is based…

3D bioprinting is a pioneering additive manufacturing process that combines biomaterials, living cells and active biomolecules to create structures that mimic the properties of natural tissue. This technology plays a crucial role in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. However, the…

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…

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…

2024 was not the best year for the 3D printing industry. When we looked back at the trends that had marked it, turbulence was dominant throughout, with failed mergers, layoffs, leadership changes and more. This struggle has been further shown…

Between purchasing printers, filaments and post-processing solutions, 3D printing can be an expensive hobby. Because the additive manufacturing market is so large, it is often difficult to choose which 3D printer to rely on. This is true not only for…

In the world of FDM 3D printing, dominated by classic Cartesian systems, some innovations are overturning established codes. Such is the case with the 4-axis core-RΘ 3D printer designed by Joshua Bird. This audacious maker has pushed back the boundaries…

Amazon is undoubtedly one of the world’s largest e-commerce platforms, with hundreds of thousands of products, from books to furniture to fashion accessories and…3D printers. The company is in fact a major distributor of 3D equipment, offering different technologies and…

All 3D printers, despite the diversity of technology, must be anchored in one place to print. They can, of course, be transported from place to place, but always by humans: none of them have a mechanism that allows them to…

Stereolithography, better known by the abbreviation SLA, became the first 3D printing technology when it was imagined in 1984 by American Chuck Hull, later founder of 3D Systems. The process, which is based on the photopolymerization of a UV-sensitive resin…
