Scientists Find New Material Mixture for Bioprinting Cartilage
For me, human tissue bioprinting is the most fascinating frontier in 3D printing, albeit the most complex and difficult one. The additive processes for this application are similar to any other 3D printing process but the materials they process and…
Yale & OPM Collaborate to Bring Biomedical Breakthroughs with 3D Printing
Further to the company’s announcements of four senior appointments in three months and being honoured by New Economy Magazine for 3D printed healthcare innovations, advanced propietary materials and 3D printing company Oxford Performance Materials (OPM) has commenced an in-depth extensive…
Implications for 3D Printing: Particles Form Gelatin-Like Substance at High Temperatures
New research from a team at New York University may have significant implications for materials research and lead to sharpened detail in 3D printing. Published in Nature Materials, the study examines how variations in temperatures can cause microscopic particles to…
New UK Robotics Facility Features World's Largest Multi-Material 3D Printer
Premier manufacturer of industrial and consumer 3D printers Stratasys Ltd. has announced today a partnership with the UK’s brand new robotics facility, the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) National Facility for Innovative Robotic Systems at the University of…
The NIST's 3D Printed Dog Nose Knows
A lonely scientist at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), thinks to himself, “If only… if only I could have a nose… like a dog!” After a bit of staring off into the distance, he continues, “So powerful,…
Oak Ridge National Lab Controls 3D Printed Metal at the Microscale
While some researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) are working on large scale 3D printing, as demonstrated with the Local Motors 3D printed car, others at ORNL have their sights focused on the microscale. At…
Nanotronics' 3D Printed nSPEC 3D: You've Never Seen a Microscope Like This
As the American Chemical Society kicks off its 2014 International Elastomer Conference today in Nashville, Tennessee, Nanotronics Imaging has brought to the world of research its latest computer-controlled microscope, the nSPEC® 3D. And this microscope is unlike any that I,…
Fair Trade Filament for 3D Printing, Here We Come!
Dr. Joshua Pearce’s lab at Michigan Technological University is always at work making strides in 3D printing, ecological sustainability, and reducing poverty. Pearce’s latest contribution to the battle for improving the human condition is not so much on the technological…
New Reactive Wearable 3D Printed Experimental Technology & Research
For me, an interesting way of looking at the philosophy behind wearable technology is to see the technology that you carry everyday not as a smart phone, smart watch, ipad or whatever it may be, but to think of it…
