Direct 3D printing of metals with submicron resolution is a promising additive manufacturing technique in a wide range of sectors. Here we present the FluidFM μ3Dprinter, which is the world's first 3D ...

With increased confidence in 3D printing, more design engineers are looking to see where new processes could add a competitive edge. While cost associated with 3D printing is reducing, metal printing ...

3D Printing has been gaining traction through many scientific and engineering disciplines as an easy way to print complex hierarchical structures, some of which are not possible by other means. The 3D ...

Additive manufacturing is a process that adds material, usually on a layer-to-layer basis, to make a 3D object based off the interpretation of 3D computer-aided-design (CAD) data. Additive ...

Welding is typically used to join two parts together, whether those parts be metal or plastic. There are various styles of welding, but we won’t go into those here. Casting is the act of pouring a ...

A manufacturing method for printing metal and ceramic surgical tools will be highlighted at MD&M West 2025. The approach offers an alternative to traditional manufacturing methods such as molding and ...

3-D printing is an unstoppable force. Not too long ago, the printing speed and limited output of 3-D printers made them suitable only for rapid prototyping. But in the coming years, 3-D printers will ...

Students at ETH Zurich have developed a multi-metal 3D printing process that can produce rocket engine components in days ...

Last week I went to the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS) and it was incredible. This is a toy store for machinists and showcases the best of industrial automation. But one of the ...
