3D-printed plastics are expected to perform well under stress and in extreme temperatures.
Behold, the world’s first 3D-printed pedestrian bridge.
The company have announced their vision of what the future might look like in 45 years. This includes construction of a smog-eating skyscraper using 3D printing.
The U.S may soon have 3D printed homes, and a new partnership are claiming they will be created in just one day.
A London-based startup, aims to pave the way to 3D printing on large scales. The company is equipping industrial-grade Kuka robotic arms with artificial intelligence and "3D printing guns" to 3D print large structures.
A major technological advance in the field of high-speed beam-scanning devices has increased the speed of 2-D and 3-D printing by up to 1000 times.
Since these chips can mimic the microarchitecture and functions of lungs, hearts, and intestines, they may eliminate the need for living subjects.
If architect James Gardiner is even half right, 3D printing is about to launch a digital design revolution. Dr Gardiner believes it will transform our world like the industrial revolution did in the 18th and 19th centuries.
Even after being stretched, twisted, and bent at extreme angles, the structures sprang back to their original forms within seconds of being heated to a certain temperature “sweet spot.”
A team of researchers has demonstrated the first autonomous, untethered, entirely soft robot. This small, 3-D-printed robot - nicknamed the octobot - pave the way for a new generation of completely soft, autonomous machines.
WASP has built the world's largest delta-style 3D printer that can build full-size buildings out of mud and clay for nearly zero cost.
Aether 1 3D Bioprinter prototype unit shown. Aether 1 beta units are set to be released summer 2016.
Miniaturization is one of the most world-shaking trends of the last several decades. Computer chips now have features measured in billionths of a meter. Sensors that once weighed kilograms fit inside your smartphone. But it doesn't end there.
One of the latest innovations in the 3D printing world comes from a preteen who created a 3D printer using a 3D -rinting pen and a Lego Mindstorms EV3.
The European Space Agency and SWISSto12 have developed a prototype dual reflector antenna that was 3D printed in a single piece.
