3D Printers

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…

Creality is undoubtedly one of the best-known consumer 3D printer brands. In CONTEXT’s latest 2024 report, the Chinese manufacturer was listed as having the largest market share for entry-level 3D printers. And this is not surprising. Creality, celebrated its 10th…

In 2021, Bordeaux-based start-up Namma presented EVA, an industrial multiprocess machine that combines three processes to produce metal, polymer and composite parts. Three years later, it has strengthened its offering with two additional models, positioning itself in both hybrid manufacturing…

The Covid pandemic and the blocked cargo ship “Ever Given” in the Suez Canal demonstrated what international companies already know: supply chains are extremely unstable, and dependency causes numerous production processes and project work to falter. The effects of unsustainable…

In recent years, two trends have come to dominate the additive manufacturing market. Users are increasingly looking for both large build volumes and compatibility with a wide range of materials. However, it can be hard to find solutions that combine…

Directed energy deposition (DED) is one of the more versatile metal additive manufacturing technologies. Used for everything from large metal parts to repairs, the process is gaining popularity in different sectors. One area where we are particularly seeing a growing…

The Kickstarter campaign for Swapmod, an automation kit for the Bambu Lab A1 Mini 3D printer, has come to a successful close, raising $51,785 from 661 backers, well above its initial $5,391 goal. The aim of this ambitious project is…

Lithoz is committed to delivering high-performance solutions for technical ceramics. The company’s innovative developments – including powerful ceramic materials, LCM technology and the CeraFab System series – are proof that Lithoz is living up to these promises. Now, just in…

Multi-material printing technology has already been discussed at 3Dnatives. This process makes it possible to manufacture 3D objects using several materials in a single continuous print. It opens up a way to create tailor-made devices in a variety of colors…
