French Survey Copter partners up with Stratasys to create 3D Printed Drones In-house
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) or as they’re more commonly called drones are not exactly a new concept – neither in the most familiar military context or in other more peace-oriented settings. However…
European Space Agencies Off-world 3D-Printed Toolbox
Is this the world’s most advanced toolbox? Possibly not. But it may be the off-world’s most advanced toolbox, 3D-printed, and now in orbit to help maintain Europe’s Columbus research…
Can 3D Printed Jet Engine Parts Save Us from Global Warming?
With air travel steadily increasing and jet exhaust contributing to about 3% of global CO2 emissions, it’s become clear that something needs to be done about the effect that jet engines have on …
SinterHab: Insectoids, Microwaves and 3D Printed Moon Bases
The day finally came when I read the headline “Giant NASA Spider Robots Could 3D Print Lunar Bases Using Microwaves”. As the universe would have it, the collective imagination that is culture had use…
Advanced Manufacturing at GE — Progress and Future Strategy
Back in November of last year, GE Aviation (a GE subsidiary and a global producer of jet engines) announced its acquisition of Morris Technologies and sister company RQM, citing critical investment in…
Home Away From Home: 3D-Printed Habitats on the Moon
The Earth’s Moon: an empty and pointless waste of rock, with nothing to do and no one to do it…until now. A consortium of European companies and organizations, including London-based architectu…
Going Large on 3D Printed Aerospace Parts
The vibe coming out of Euromold at the end of last year was all about scaling up 3D printers for bigger applications. Well, one of the biggest 3DP applications I’ve ever seen in metal came to light la…
3D Printing Satellites
When we talk about the satellites orbiting the earth the image that comes to most people’s mind often resembles a small-scale space station with reflective mirror panels and antennae sticking out. The…
Creating A Whole Other Dimension – Enabled by 3D Printing
Researchers at MIT have used 3D printing to fabricate a three-dimensional, lightweight metamaterial lens that focuses radio waves with extreme precision. Essentially this is tech geek heaven. Metamate…
