As the medical manufacturing landscape continues to improve, advanced 3D printing stands out as an industry solution. Inkjet 3D printing represents the next steps for this key technology, offering ...

With 3D inkjet printing systems, engineers can fabricate hybrid structures that have soft and rigid components, like robotic grippers that are strong enough to grasp heavy objects but soft enough to ...

3D printing has already been put to use in many interesting applications, from large-scale homebuilding to robot hands that are good at Super Mario Bros.—and even creepy materials that can shape-shift ...

We spend a lot of time thinking of how to create 3D objects, but what about being able to print full color graphics on the objects we create? This isn’t just multicolor, this is full-color! Here’s one ...

Researchers have used inkjet printing to create a compact multispectral version of a light field camera. The camera, which fits in the palm of the hand, could be useful for many applications including ...

3D printing is a popular process, though one of the hangups is that parts are typically produced in just one flat color. [Aad] has been working on a simple modification to his Prusa i3 printer, ...

Alexandria, VA, USA – Kyle Sorensen, University of Colorado, University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, Aroura, presented the “Low Viscosity, High-Performance Urethane Formulations Designed for ...

A plump piece of farm-fresh chicken leg rested on a pristine surface at Harvard Medical School. Skin on and bone in, it was precisely sliced to barely crack the bone. A robot arm swerved over, scanned ...

Researchers are targeting the next generation of soft actuators and robots with an elastomer-based ink for 3D printing objects with locally changing mechanical properties, eliminating the need for ...

Bespoke manufacturing by design and on-demand is the ultimate goal for various fields ranging from biomaterials to structural materials. Today, additive manufacturing is a quick-moving, ...

Objects made with 3D printing can be lighter, stronger, and more complex than those produced through traditional manufacturing methods. But several technical challenges must be overcome before 3D ...

It’s been a while since 3D printers became available and started allowing people to create 3D objects in the real world right from their own home. If you’re interested in getting a rundown of what 3D ...
