3D printing builds parts out of plastic, metal and other materials directly from CAD drawings that have been cross sectioned into thousands of layers. Sizes of printed objects run the gamut from ...

Using their optimized method, the team 3D-printed bioinspired structures like cilia, webs, leaf-like shapes, and lattices.

3D printing today makes prototyping and manufacturing complex, custom objects simpler but tomorrow, everyone will have a 3D printer on their desk and make their own sneakers and hats. 3D printing ...

This 3D printer uses a liquid batter mix to make different shaped pancakes 3D printers are machines that use complex software programmes to create three-dimensional objects from digital designs.

3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, has emerged as a groundbreaking technology that is transforming the way we design, manufacture, and interact with physical objects. From creating ...

An interesting research project out of MIT shows that it’s possible to embed machine-readable labels into 3D printed objects using nothing more than an FDM printer and filament that is ...

The results from your 3D printer may be improved if you use a dedicated enclosure for the job. This is particularly helpful for printing certain materials which are more sensitive to cold drafts ...

“Additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, is capable of producing remarkably complex materials quickly and at low cost. Putting that technology in space and printing what we need for assembly in orbit ...

Funded in part by multiple C2E2 Grants (Century II Endowed Equipment Fund), the Van Pelt and Opie Library is providing 3D printing orientation and training available to current students, faculty, and ...
