A new holographic 3D-printing platform can produce detailed living structures faster, larger, and with greater accuracy than previous methods. What if a 3D printer could create soft, living tissue in ...

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 ...

Volumetric 3D printing can create full objects in seconds, but wasted light has held it back. An EPFL team now redirects laser energy far more efficiently, producing larger, cleaner, cell-filled ...

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 ...

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 ...

Researchers are using an innovative 3D-printing technique that could revolutionize the quest to resurrect extinct animals ...

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 ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich and MIT created a multi-material 3D printed hand using a process invented to enable the innovation of soft robotics. (Thomas Buchner via Courthouse News Service) (CN) — To ...

In recent years, research interest in the 3D printing of metal patterns on plastic parts has grown exponentially, due to its high potential in the manufacturing of next-generation electronics. But ...

3D printing has become one of the most efficient and affordable ways of creating simple, specific items without having to purchase them. But while 3D printing can save you money on some things, it's ...

We test unconventional methods to achieve 3D-printed-style results without using an actual 3D printer.

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 ...
