More than 1,000 people from all over the world got a crash course in additive manufacturing (AM) during a recent virtual workshop hosted by MIT Professional Education. More commonly known as 3D ...

Makers looking for a complete rapid prototyping and manufacturing system in one compact unit that includes a CNC milling machine, 3D printer and an injection moulding machine might be interested in a ...

There is one challenge every hardware entrepreneur must ultimately tackle, and tackle quickly. It’s called “closing the prototype gap.” This can be difficult for hardware startups as the move from ...

Innovations in 3D printing have done their part to inspire maker-culture. We print, or at-least try to print, drones, human organs, and even medications. Additive techniques are practical and ...

Objects made with 3D printing can be lighter, stronger, and more complex than those produced through traditional manufacturing methods. But several technical challenges must be overcome before 3D ...

With a still unannounced price and a footprint the size of a washing machine (as The BBC handily points out), the Jet Fusion 3D 4200 is big and (most likely) expensive. But HP is also positioning the ...

Ever since the genesis of additive manufacturing (AM or “3D printing” – creating structures layer by layer) during the final decades of the 20 th century, a major goal in the manufacturing industry ...

DEARBORN HEIGHTS, Mich. — Ten years ago, Ford 3D-printed perhaps 4,000 prototype parts for its vehicles. Today, just one of the automaker’s five 3D prototyping centers churns out more than 20,000 ...

UB biomedical engineers have acquired a rapid-prototyping machine to aid their groundbreaking efforts to manufacture living tissues and organs, and fabricate customized implants and prostheses, among ...

MIT researchers have developed a multi-material 3D-printing platform that can be used to fully print electric machines in a single step.

It’s only ten days since we wrote about the titanium 3D-printed Empire Cycles MX-6 Evo mountain bike, a one-off machine designed to show what can be done with additive manufacturing. This article ...
