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 ...

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 ...

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

[DaveMakesStuff] demonstrates a great technique for 3D printing a sphere ... filament use while also printing support-free. Vase (or spiral) mode prints an object using a single, unbroken ...

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 ...

“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 ...

Researchers from the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland built a 3D-printed microscope ... while they’re useful for imaging small fine objects, they’re not capable of seeing at ...

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 ...
