Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have developed a method that uses additive manufacturing (AM)—3D printing—to fabricate ...

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 ...

3D printing isn't just a DIY option for hobbyists who want to make useful home gadgets or their own action figures. As a recent study published in Nature points out, 3D printing can have applications ...

Welding is typically used to join two parts together, whether those parts be metal or plastic. There are various styles of welding, but we won’t go into those here. Casting is the act of pouring a ...

One-pot recipes make preparing meals quick and easy. And one-pot 3D-printing could do the same for additive manufacturing. Now, researchers publishing in ACS Central Science have demonstrated a new ...

A team of scientists has unveiled a method for 3D printing that allows manufacturers to create custom-made objects more economically and sustainably. University of Florida engineers have developed a ...

A pioneering Dutch project shows how 3D printing could reshape construction with lighter structures, lower emissions, and ...

Using an affordable 3D printer and the CRAFT method, researchers created a model human hand from a single feedstock with distinct domains that mimic the hardness or flexibility of skin, ligaments, ...

A 40-year-old invention that was always too hard to manufacture is now a real object, thanks to MIT researchers and modern 3D ...

Vat photopolymerization is a 3D printing technique in which a light-sensitive resin is poured into a vat, and then selectively hardened into a desired shape using a laser or UV light. But this process ...

3D printing experts have shared practical methods to improve the durability of automotive parts, focusing on print orientation, infill density, and wall thickness. These adjustments can significantly ...
