Makerbot is in the gutter, 3D Systems and Stratasys stock is only a shadow of their 2014 glory, but this is the best year 3D printing has ever had. Machines are now good and cheap, there’s a variety ...

We take you through Formnext 2025 to see some of the biggest 3D printers on display at the show! Watch the video here.

While consumer-grade 3D printers may be adequate for making things like models or curios, they're not always up to the task of creating objects that stand up to real-world use. That could be about to ...

(Nanowerk News) With 3D inkjet printing systems, engineers can fabricate hybrid structures that have soft and rigid components, like robotic grippers that are strong enough to grasp heavy objects but ...

The new fast 3D printing technique developed by researchers at EPFL. Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne 3D printing has incredible potential for both research and home uses, but it has some ...

M any 3D printers can produce remarkably detailed and impressive objects, which makes it tempting to try every interesting ...

A new 3D printer uses light to transform gooey liquids into complex solid objects in only a matter of minutes. The printer can create objects that are smoother, more flexible and more complex than ...

How do you create complex 3D-printed objects in seconds, instead of hours or days? A team of scientists and engineers led by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) has developed a process that ...

There are about a dozen metrics by which I judge 3D printers when testing them, including speed, noise and the materials with which they can print. But, none of the latter attributes compares in ...

3D printing is super cool, but it's also super slow -- it would take 115 days to print a detailed, multimaterial object about the size of a grapefruit. A new method allows printing with up to 8 ...
