Beyond its purely aesthetic function, color plays an important role in areas such as consumer goods, interior design, and even medicine. A colored 3D component can be produced in various ways: either directly with a multicolor 3D printer, through hand…

In the United States, approximately 300,000 people are living with spinal cord injuries. These injuries can stem from trauma or previous medical conditions, and each year, there are about 18,000 new cases. Spinal cord injuries mostly affect men, and to…

In late August, NASA and SpaceX launched the 33rd commercial resupply mission to the International Space Station (ISS). The mission, carried out with the reliable Dragon capsule, transported not only the usual supplies but also a wide range of innovative…

3D printing is probably not what comes to mind when one thinks of Nestlé, the international food and drink corporation. (And no, we aren’t talking about 3D printed chocolate.) However, over the past year, Nestlé has been integrating 3D printing…

Since 2016, the Dutch company 3devo has been developing innovative solutions to accelerate the research, testing, and development of polymer materials. Known for its compact, all-in-one extrusion systems featuring a signature vertical extrusion design, the company offers machines that create…

Polymers remain at the heart of additive manufacturing, and their role is rapidly expanding. Once used mainly for prototyping, they’re now powering end-use parts and large-scale industrial applications. That’s why we’re bringing them back into focus at the third edition…

Don Bosco University in El Salvador has unveiled a project that puts 3D printing in the spotlight. Through the Micro Macro Observatory (OMM), the university presented the Zuyat mission, a project that successfully launched the country’s first stratospheric probe. The…

The startup Parastruct has attracted attention, especially after winning in the “Waste Management and Recycling” category from Kurier magazine. With innovative solutions that follow the principles of circular production, the company is at the forefront when it comes to pursuing…
