The goal is to develop tissue or functional organs similar natural body parts that are ready to be transplanted. Fully functional 3D-printed organs are not a reality yet but there are a number of encouraging projects. Watch this video to find out more about these fascinating projects!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/64-ujrKUxLc\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h4>Top 2: A 3D printed engine mold<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">MeiMai Foundry is a company specialized in rapid prototyping and sand and investment casting. One of its projects consisted in manufacturing an electric motor with a very short test and implementation phase. The company therefore turned to additive manufacturing to create a mould in order to be able to cast the necessary metal. This was 3D printed on a VX2000 voxeljet machine with a print volume of 2 x 1 x 1 meter and is based on a Binder Jetting process. In 72 hours, MeiMai Foundry was able to print 60 moulds; in total, the lead time for manufacturing the engine was 3 weeks, a lead time that would be increased to 2\/3 months with conventional processes:<\/p><div class=\"dnati-inside-article-leaderboard\" style=\"text-align: center;\" id=\"dnati-96627836\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/webinar\/register\/3717757396787\/WN_sBfwcCHoQSq1mEANYpWa6Q\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"LB (3)\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.3dnatives.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/04\/LB-3.gif\" alt=\"\"  width=\"850\" height=\"150\"   \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UX0LOejgyUY\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h4>Top 3: Siemens uses AM for Power &amp; Gas design<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The giant Siemens has relied on additive manufacturing to design some components for its gas turbines, particularly on EOS machines. Thanks to this new manufacturing method, the group claims that it has reduced its development lead times by 75% and its manufacturing lead times by 50%, offering quick and easy solutions for its gas and energy business. Siemens has considerably reduced the number of its components from 13 to one. The manufacturing process in this case would be 10 times faster:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/w5S5rfsJqWI\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h4>Top 4: The Amprove solution<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Altair is a company that develops software solutions, some for additive manufacturing, to help users be more agile in their approach. It has worked with the start-up company Amprove to develop a simulation solution for 3D printing. This reduces the amount of materials used and therefore costs, increases the agility of the 3D printing process itself and reduces the risk of errors:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nBbHkDr_hyQ\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h4>Top 5: 3D printing in automotive<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Every month, the car manufacturer BMW honours a doctoral candidate who explains his work in the company and his goals. This month we meet Philip who works directly with additive manufacturing to produce components and small series. His goal is to develop concepts that can be automated from the prototyping phase to final production. He wants to understand how this automation process can work and especially how it goes hand in hand with 3D printing:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BTho7Sk0N7w\" width=\"700\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What do you think of these applications? \u00a0Drop a comment below or on our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/3Dnatives\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Facebook<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/3Dnatives_en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Twitter<\/a>\u00a0pages!
