Silicone is a material that is becoming increasingly popular in additive manufacturing due to its properties: good thermal and chemical resistance, biocompatibility and flame retardancy. Generally, the material is used in traditional manufacturing processes such as injection molding. However, it…

The Oxford English Dictionary defines architecture as “the art and study of designing buildings”: whether it is houses, offices, bridges or schools, this art is greatly impacted by new technologies. Architects are looking for innovative structures, both in terms of…

The additive manufacturing market has grown rapidly in recent years, with more 3D printers being sold and used around the world. In fact, according to a report from Grand View Research, while 2.2 million 3D printers were shipped in 2021,…

One of the sectors where additive manufacturing has had an increasing role in recent years is energy. Already, we have told you about the many applications for 3D printing in Oil & Gas, but did you know that it is…

The term engine, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, simply means ‘a machine with moving parts that converts power into motion’. With such a widely-encompassing definition, this term can be applied to any number of different sectors and applications, and…

3D modeling is a key step in the 3D printing value chain, a step that allows the user to imagine the geometry of the part and its functionality. But when you are a beginner, it is difficult to find your…

Valentine’s Day, or the feast of Saint Valentine, most likely has its origins in Ancient Rome. The celebration is one of the most popular holidays around the world as a mark of romance and love. If you want to give…

It is not easy today to provide a universal definition of a consumer good: from basic necessities such as food that we purchase more regularly, to durable products such as cars or electronic devices, the list is long. One thing…

Bioprinting is a method that makes it possible to manufacture cellular structures from bioinks loaded with stem cells: layer by layer, the biomaterial is deposited to design skin, tissue or even an organ. Imagine a 3D printed heart, ear, lung…

The additive manufacturing process rarely stops once your 3D printer has completed the part. Often, it takes varying amounts of time to complete post-processing steps, depending on the printing technology used. In fact, a recent study showed that the biggest…

Metal 3D printing has been one of the most outstanding developments in the AM industry in recent years. In 2018, Wohlers Report reported that 80% more metal 3D printing solutions had been sold compared to the previous year – today, …

3D microprinting, also known as micro-scale printing, is a micro-fabrication technique that allows the design of very small sizes, at the micrometer scale and below. Particularly popular in the electronics industry, it is growing steadily, with more solutions available on…
