Traditional 3D printing that is commonplace today can often take a very long time to create an object. This is because the printer must complete one layer at a time, sometimes requiring hours or at ...

A new twist on two-photon polymerization has been used to deliver objects, including lasers and an elephant, directly into ...

3D printing is super cool, but it's also super slow -- it would take 115 days to print a detailed, multimaterial object about the size of a grapefruit. A new method allows printing with up to 8 ...

Collaboration will create specialized materials tailor-made for composite-based additive manufacturing NORTHBROOK, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Impossible Objects today announced a joint development ...

We have all spent a wasted day shopping, or worse, regretting our purchases. You often can’t find a pair of jeans that fit perfectly or a lamp that matches the fuchsia stripes on your wall. Wouldn’t ...

When you think of 3D printing, you probably imagine a structure being created layer by layer, from the bottom up. Now, researchers from Switzerland's Ecole polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) ...

How do you create complex 3D-printed objects in seconds, instead of hours or days? A team of scientists and engineers led by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) has developed a process that ...

It's a frustrating limitation of 3D printing: Printed objects must be smaller than the machine making them. Huge machines are impractical for printing large parts because they take up too much space ...

Researchers from the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD), in collaboration with Georgia Institute of Technology, have recently developed a new method to 3D print shape-shifting ...

Multi-material 3D printing lets users fabricate customized objects with multiple colors and varied textures. Yet the process can be time-consuming and wasteful because existing 3D printers must switch ...

Replacing parts on a lunar base could pose a major challenge, since resupplying missions will likely be massively expensive and time consuming. That’s why a group of scientists led by the European ...

Report Ocean recently announced the publication of its new report on the 3D Printing market. The research assesses key elements that will have a significant impact on the market throughout the ...
