3D printers are about to become like star trek replicators - CBN Nano Technologies introduced a new technique called inverted mode scanning tunneling microscopy that enables mechanically controlled assembly at the atomic level....
First Human Cornea Transplant Using 3D Printed, Lab-Grown Tissue Restores Sight in a 'Game Changer' for Millions Who are Blind
Texas-based Janta Power has just snagged US$5.5 million in a round of seed funding to continue the deployment of its pivoting solar power towers.
3D-printed bike saddles in general are known to be comfier than their regular counterparts, but they should become even more so if they're made to order. That's the thinking behind the Personomic saddle, which is printed to fit the butt of each indiv
Swiss researchers have pioneered a method of cultivating metal out of water-based gel, an innovation that promises valuable applications in energy technology.
Incorporating machine learning, MIT engineers have developed a way to 3D print alloys that are much stronger.
Polymer-based conductive nanocomposites, particularly those incorporating carbon nanotubes, are highly promising for the development of flexible electronics, soft robotics and wearable devices.
Driving 1,000 miles (1,609 km) of public road to set five official production car lap records in five consecutive days is no small feat – especially not for a car built with 3D-printed and machine-designed components. The Czinger 21C has just set a
A home for everyone Strong, affordable, and beautiful -- all made possible with cutting-edge 3D printing technology.
3D-Printing 'Glue Gun' Can Repair Bone Fractures During Surgery Filling-in the Gaps Around Jagged Edges
Consumer 3D printers definitely have their uses, but they're typically limited to printing rigid objects … and doing so pretty slowly. The Saltgator, on the other hand, allows you to crank out rubbery injection-molded items in a claimed 10 minutes.
Most 3D-printed houses we cover are either arranged on one floor or have an upper floor added later using a timber shell. However, this recent example, by Contec Australia, was entirely 3D-printed across both floors in just 18 hours.
With an eye toward recycling, sustainability, and reduced carbon emissions, Lib Work focused on combining 3D-printing with natural materials enhanced for strength, constructibility, and design quality.
When 3D-printed architecture first materialized, many assumed that it would lead to widespread affordable housing, but, excepting some housing for homeless people, this hasn't been the case in the USA yet.
Anticipating a boom in nuclear energy, the US Department of Energy's Manufacturing Demonstration Facility (MDF) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory is using 3D-printing to speed up the building of power plants while bringing down costs.
Apparently, folks in the material science world are totally over the fact that we're able to 3D print titanium alloys willy-nilly.
This remarkable house was built using 3D-printing technology, but with a sustainable twist: instead of being constructed using concrete like the majority of 3D-printed buildings, it's predominantly made from a soil-based mixture.
SLS - Selective Laser Sintering, a 3D printing method, allows printing without the support structures. 3D printed on TRUMPF TRUPRINT 1000.
If an object that's composed of two types of material is going to fail, the break will usually occur at the interface where the two meet. A new type of light-activated 3D printing resin addresses that problem, by gradually morphing from hard to soft
He 3D Printed a Whole House
Likened by its creators to an "ornate layered cake," the Tor Alva has been completed in Switzerland. Hailed as the world's tallest 3D-printed building, this remarkable structure rises to an impressive height of 30 m (98.5 ft).
Philips says it's a sustainability-focused initiative that should help people hold on to their products longer, and keep e-waste out of landfills.
Welcome to the self-reliant world of 3-D printing. These engine components can help keep things running smoothly without a trip ...
