3D Printed Articulation
The full potential of 3D printing, regardless of opinions and forecasts, is unknown and the exploration of applications has just begun. Many of the known applications on a larger scale are still expensive, slow and there are constraints in dimensions.…
The Future of 3D Printing Materials According to HP – Glass
HP – widely known for its decades of extensive R&D work in the tech field – has shed some light on its views about the world to come. Not surprisingly, 3D technology in its many forms and faces hogs a…
3D Printing Personal Electronics in the Future with 'Carbomorph'?
New materials are currently under research that could one day enable people to 3D print custom-designed personal electronics, such as a hand fitting game controller, at home. At the University of Warwick researchers have developed a simple and inexpensive conductive…
3D Printing and Soil Science
Until recently, researchers working in the field of soil science have had to resort to time consuming manufacturing processes for creating the necessary laboratory or field equipment for their research activities. With the aid of the latest 3D printing technology,…
Nanoscale Fabrication – Micropyramids
The living cells are in a field full of pyramids on a micro scale, each “open pyramid” containing a cell that can interact with others. The findings of this new technology research is published in Small journal this month. Most…
Research into Light and Durable 3D Printed Fractal Structures
We have seen quite a few examples of 3D printed objects being tweaked with different structural software and algorithms – for example by hollowing out or adding new parts in order to make them lighter and/or more durable. On that…
Scaling Up With the Spiderbot 3D Printer
Ben Peters – an MIT student studying new fabrication techniques at the Media Lab’s Mediated Matter group – is responsible for developing an interesting 3D printing project called Spiderbot. Ben’s objective is to break down the boundaries set by conventional…
Simulated Melted Moon Rocks Used For 3D Printing
3D printers and their many applications are going far and wide. In August we shared a story of the tech being applied in warzones with the US Army’s Expeditionary Lab, but the next phase of the journey might take 3D…
A Novel Hybrid Printer Aids R&D for Implantable 3D Cartilage Tissue
Bioprinting has seen a number of significant developments in the last 12 months, but a momentous step forward in this area has been announced recently by Tao Xu et al of the Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine. The premise…
