This week, we have five more videos related to the 3D printing industry! First, watch an exclusive interview with the French company MB Therapeutics which 3D prints personalized medication. Second, be sure to tune into our webinar with Stratasys, where…

If you are an additive manufacturing and 3D printing enthusiast, you’ve heard of Thingiverse. It is an online platform with millions of 3D files, designed by a growing community of users. These models are exportable in STL format, allowing you…

In a historic milestone for construction in Chile, the country’s first 3D printed house has been inaugurated in the Biobío region. The project, known as Casa Semilla, marks a significant advance in the adoption of new technologies in the housing…

Times move forward and society evolves and adapts to new changes. The same phenomenon can be seen with technology, a little more than a decade ago we could not even imagine the technology that we have today at our fingertips.…

Steel is a well-known metal in the industrial production and 3D printing sectors. It is an alloy based on iron (Fe) and other elements, mainly carbon (C), but also materials such as zinc (Zn) or silicon (Si). These alloys modify…

Although there are many steps in 3D printing, one of the most critical is, without a doubt, slicing. In this stage, software platforms known as slicers are used to convert the 3D model into a series of thin layers, the…

Who could have imagined it? While the industry is bustling with news about the upcoming Formnext in Frankfurt with daily updates about new products and announcements, it is Formnext Chicago 2025 instead that is causing a stir. The Chicago trade…

It would not be hyperbole to say that the U.S. Navy has quickly become one of the main adopters of additive manufacturing in the defense sector. We have heard time and time again about successful uses of 3D printing for…

Metal additive manufacturing is finding its way into more and more industries, from aerospace and marine to electronics and automotive. It enables the design of more complex, lightweight and durable parts. Copper’s excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, resistance to atmospheric…

Advances in 3D printing for medicine are booming, and researchers at the University of Texas at Dallas have just successfully designed a 3D-printed femur model. This project could provide doctors with a new tool to better prepare bone reconstruction surgeries…

Concrete is a popular material for 3D printing, especially in the construction sector. It’s a composite material of aggregate—usually geological materials such as gravel, sand and crushed rock—that is bonded by fluid cement and hardened over time. In recent years,…

The additive manufacturing sector continues to advance thanks to the talent and motivation of the people who are driving the technology forward and, with it, the industry as a whole. It is therefore essential that all these ideas receive the…
