This summer, the impact of global warming has clear worldwide. One particularly worrying sign has been the rise in fires, a direct result of numerous heat waves as well as low rainfall. In the United States alone, the National Interagency…

One of the key to modern manufacturing is research and development into materials. Especially in industries like aerospace, materials that are both lightweight and extremely strong are critical for the parts that need to be made. Indeed, material research for…

There are already a number of examples where naval stations at sea have integrated additive manufacturing. The U.S. Navy, for example, is using 3D printing technology from manufacturer ICON in order to be able to react quickly in the event…

Stereolithography (from stereo– Greek for solid, and lithography) is an early method of 3D printing. The first equipment was patented in 1984 by Charles “Chuck” Hull, and the first commercial machine developed by 3D Systems in 1988. But how does…

In Latin America, the implementation of additive manufacturing is still slow as not as many have adopted it as in other regions. However, companies such as Cementos Progreso are proof of the growth of 3D printing in this region. This…

If you’re interested in cars and 3D printing, the names McLaren Racing and Stratasys are probably familiar to you. These two companies have decided to team up to create state-of-the-art equipment together. In Formula 1, one thing is most important:…

Over the years, 3D printing has gradually made its way into the medical field. Orthopedics, ophthalmology, dentistry and traumatology are just some of the specialties that are now using the technology to optimize their activities. And for good reason. Because…

Everyone should be aware that additive manufacturing is not just about 3D printing itself. In addition to post-processing, the use of the right software for creating the 3D-printed model also plays a major role. If you are looking into choosing…

It’s Friday again and you know what that means. It’s time for our weekly top 5 videos from the exciting world of 3D printing! We start off this week’s top 5 videos with an interview with Dr. Emil Somekh, Ceo…

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…

Once again, doctors are turning to 3D printing to solve unique issues in the field of medicine. In this case, engineers and doctors at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities used the technology to develop a unique light-sensing medical device…
