Metal 3D printing has long promised aerospace-grade parts at desktop scale, but titanium has stubbornly resisted that vision.
The University of Texas at Austin researchers have developed a chemical process that could revolutionize light-driven 3D printing. The University of Texas at Austin Vat photopolymerization, a powerful ...
Oak Ridge National Laboratory advances in 3D printing nuclear reactor components, potentially enhancing safety and efficiency ...
Thermosets, such as epoxy and silicon rubbers, are a class of polymer (i.e., plastic) materials that harden permanently when they undergo a specific chemical reaction, known as "crosslinking." These ...
Self-healing materials are being developed by RIT researchers to further improve additive manufacturing, specifically 3D-printed products, to make them stronger and more resilient. Christopher Lewis ...
Thanks to the research of two professors at UW-Platteville, there may truly be no reason to ever cry over spilled milk.
The making of parts and products using a computer-driven, additive process, one layer at a time. 3D printing builds parts out of plastic, metal and other materials directly from CAD drawings that have ...
Repairing and reusing plastics and delivering cancer drugs more effectively are only two of many of the potential applications a new 3D/4D printing technology might have, thanks to the pioneering work ...
Engineers have created a way to 3D print large and complex parts at a fraction of the cost of current methods. Rutgers engineers have created a way to 3D print large and complex parts at a fraction of ...
“Our cold metal fusion technology offers a process that is at least three times faster and more scalable than any other kind of 3D printing,” says Carrington. “Per-part prices are generally 50 to 60 ...
