Now, in their mission to colonize Mars by 2050, <span style=\"font-size: 1em;\">the company is using 3D printing technologies, including Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS), to print parts in days rather than months. SpaceX is building rockets that can be refueled and reused many times over thanks to the high-performance parts 3D printing produces:<\/span><\/p><div class=\"dnati-inside-article-leaderboard\" style=\"text-align: center;\" id=\"dnati-2498002999\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/app.swapcard.com\/login\/event\/additiv-defense-2026\/ticket\/VGlja2V0VHlwZV83MDM4MQ==\/page\/UmVnaXN0cmF0aW9uRm9ybV81NjE4Ng==\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"LB\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.3dnatives.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/03\/LB.gif\" alt=\"\"  width=\"850\" height=\"150\"   \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/X-fRNEy5pAA\" 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><\/center><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Top 2: The Future of Bio-Printing<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With his team, Dr. Christophe Marquette, research director at the National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) of the University of Lyon 1, is currently working on a project called BLOC-PRINT, in partnership with the French army. The objective of this initiative is to regenerate the skin of burn victims by using bioprinting directly in the operating room. According to the doctor, it will take about ten years to fully develop this technology. And once it does, bioprinting could come to the aid of thousands of people awaiting transplants or transplants:<\/p>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wGzSir8YOME\" 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>&gt;\/center&gt;<\/center><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Montserrat; font-size: 1.4em;\">Top 3: Creaform 3D scanners<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the 3D printing sector, scanning is regularly used to obtain 3D models of existing parts. To do this, you have to use a 3D scanner. Creaform, a company specializing in 3D printing and 3D scanning, offers a variety of scanners. Among them, we find the MetraSCAN, fast and intended for large and accessible surfaces. For surfaces that are difficult to access, the HandySCAN is more suitable. Finally, for small surfaces, Creamform also offers the Go! SCAN, the fastest of the range according to the manufacturer:<\/p>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PTaEKp4_r8Q\" 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><\/center><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Top 4: Materialise Partners with Pinarello<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You are no doubt aware, 3D printing allows many companies in the sports industry to design all kinds of equipment.\u00a0And cycling is no exception!\u00a0To make its latest bike lighter, the Dogma F, Pinarello has teamed up with Materialise so that the company specializing in 3D printing can print 2,000 parts.
