RIT engineering technology researcher Christopher Lewis develops self-healing materials to improve 3D printing processes and ...
Engineers at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) have reimagined what it means to 3D print metal. Instead of ...
Rapid liquid 3D printing uses gel suspension for fast support-free printing. This method is fast, requires no post-processing, and allows for complex internal geometries. While promising, the ...
When most people think about 3D printing, they probably imagine an FDM (fuse deposition modeling, or fused filament fabrication) printer — a thin plastic filament feeding through a hot extruder that ...
In 2024, the University of Maine unveiled the world’s largest 3D printer, which can print objects up to 29 meters long.
EPFL scientists have created a breakthrough 3D printing method that uses hydrogels as templates to produce ultra-dense, ...
A few hours at a tech launch can change how you look at the future. I realized that recently, standing amid rows of humming ...
As technology continues to advance, the upgrades to equipment and devices marketed to the public are inevitable. Although the initial hype for 3D printers may have subsided due to high costs and ...

At this point, 3D printers are nearly everywhere. Schools, hackerspaces, home workshops, you name it. Most of these machines are of the extruded-filament variety, better known as FDM or Fused ...
As an alternative to filament 3D printers, resin printers generally print smaller objects but at much higher detail levels. Resin printers that use photo-sensitive liquid plastics are a relatively new ...
