3D Technologies

When it comes to additive manufacturing, it is safe to say that it is definitely not one size fits all. Though of course the basis of the technology, developing layer by layer, stays constant, the way of doing this certainly…

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…

The medical sector has been greatly benefiting from the use of 3D technologies in recent years. One such example can be seen through one of the Chinese leaders in the field of orthopedics, Wuhan Biying Biotechnology Co., Ltd. Together with…

Within resin 3D printing there are a number of different manufacturing methods. Processes like SLA, DLP or MSLA are all available, differing depending on which light source or process by which the photopolymer solidifies is used. In addition, many large…

A new report has been released by the Additive Manufacturer Green Trade Association (AMGTA) outlining a new process to make it possible to passivate metal condensate waste for transport and recycling. The AMGTA, originally founded to promote the environmental benefits…

There are multiple 3D printing technologies within the industry, they are used in different sectors and for different utilities. Among them is Selective Laser Sintering (SLS). How does this technology work? What materials can be used? We tell you everything…

Process and workflow automation is a fundamental aspect of Industry 4.0. These types of automation systems serve to control and monitor a process, machine or device in a computerized way, with the goal of operating it automatically to improve production.…

When Carbon was founded in 2013, it set about to radically change product development and manufacturing with its ultra-fast photopolymerization printing process, Digital Light SynthesisTM  (DLS). Since then, the company has continued to make waves as companies like adidas, Ford…

SPEE3D, an Australian metal 3D printing company, recently announced that it was chosen by the US Navy to play an important role in their MaintenX exercise which aims to give a better understanding of the operational challenges faced by soldiers…

PrintFoam, a start-up company founded by Alumni of MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts, recently announced the development of the first printer hardware specializing in the industrial-scale printing of resin foams. Of all the additive manufacturing materials on the market, 3D printing…

The Bovay Civil Infrastructure Laboratory Complex, located in the basement of the Thurston Hall at the Cornell University in New York, recently purchased an industrial 3D printing robot. The roughly 6000 lbs heavy machine has the ability to 3D print…

After having been acquired last year for $575 million by Desktop Metal, ExOne continues to make headline news in the additive manufacturing market. This time, the American company is back in the spotlight with a brand new system designed to…
