3D printing in the world of athletic footwear is nothing new. Nike, PUMA, and ASICS, among others, have been experimenting with 3D-printed shoes and soles for years. But there is one area where none had fully taken the leap: soccer…

The Additive Manufacturing Users Group (AMUG) presented its prestigious DINO (Distinguished INnovator Operator) Award for additive manufacturing expertise and service to six individuals at the 37th annual AMUG Conference held March 15-19, 2026, in Reno, Nevada. AMUG representatives presented the…

The U.S. military is increasingly turning to additive manufacturing not as an experimental tool, but as a strategic response to a structural problem: supply chains that were never built for the speed of modern conflict. The latest example comes from…

Technical ceramics offer unparalleled properties, from extreme heat resistance to exceptional corrosion protection. When combined with the design flexibility and precision of additive technologies, this material is becoming a indispensable for industries ranging from medical and aerospace to semiconductors.  Ceramic…

With May 4th just around the corner, we’ve put together a selection of STL files so you still have time to print them before Star Wars Day. Whatever FDM printer you’re using, these models are a great excuse to make…

You might expect large corporations, with the budgets and engineering resources to match, to be the first in line when it comes to adopting “new” technologies like additive manufacturing. According to Andrea Gorlezza, CEO of MadeInAdd, the opposite is closer…

We know that construction 3D printing is useful for reducing labor costs and achieving unique geometries, but what about for construction in remote areas? The company Cementos Argos just finished printing South America’s first additively-manufactured social housing in La Unión,…
