Engineers at Harvard have developed a 3D printing technique that produces soft robotic structures capable of twisting and bending in predictable patterns when inflated with air. The method, which ...

Concordia researchers have developed a new 3D-printing technique that uses sound waves to directly print tiny structures onto ...

In a nutshell: As the construction industry faces pressure to reduce its carbon footprint, developments like impact printing offer a solution. By harnessing abundant earth materials and advanced ...

By positioning the sound source closer to the surface, researchers achieve enhanced resolution and repeatability in ...

Taking a cue from the structural complexity of trees and bones, engineers have created a way to 3D-print two types of steel in the same circular layer using two welding machines. The resulting ...

With the assistance of rotatable mandrel and slit projection systems, PLLP can rapidly achieve the manufacturing of single-layer or multi-layer multi-material structures. A novel 3D printing ...

Within this context, Hitem3D has drawn attention to its focus on production-oriented image-to-3D generation. Rather than positioning itself as a general-purpose creative platform, Hitem3D aligns its ...

Poor orientation can lead to weak spots, rough surfaces, warping, or excessive support structures. A well-chosen orientation, on the other hand, improves structural performance, visual finish, and ...

At the dawn of 3D printing, support structures were something to avoid. ABS is a hard substance to clear off, and the slicers did a comparatively poor job of making structures that were easy to remove ...

According to Additive Manufacturing Research, the 3D printing industry reached $14.7 billion in 2023. More importantly, it’s estimated to be on track to hit nearly $58 billion by 2032, thanks to key ...
