Tissue expansion is a common technique used in reconstructive surgery. Surgeons slowly stretch nearby skin to grow extra ...

The quantum computing industry has spent the last three years measured almost entirely in qubits. Willow’s 105. Nighthawk’s 120. The 540-qubit superconducting platform that integrated nearly 700 ...

Additive manufacturing (or 3D printing) performs well in prototyping, where speed and flexibility outweigh cost and throughput constraints. Problems begin when those same designs move into production.

Faculty in the Cockrell School of Engineering have developed a rare printer as part of a larger project to speed up production and lower costs of manufacturing semiconductors critical to modern ...

Along with layer lines, FDM printers are notorious for being neither air- nor water-tight due to the countless very small gaps between the layers. This is very unfortunate if you are trying to FDM ...

I blamed speed, temperature, supports, and filament before I finally checked the flow rate calibration.

Default settings feel safe, but my first week with a 3D printer proved they can quietly wreck prints.

There's something incredibly satisfying about finding a cool 3D print project on sites like Thingiverse and turning digital 3D models into a physical object — but that satisfaction can come with a ...

Buying a 3D printer opens you up to a whole new world of crafting and design, and a few cheap upgrades will help you go even further with it.

Although 3D printing equipment is widely available to consumers now, you could be forgiven if you assume 3D printing is nevertheless a niche hobby. What you might not realize is that exploring this ...

While traditional firearms are currently a more pressing problem, seizures of 3DPFs are on the rise, with worrying implications for the region. A side view of the FGC-9 MKII Stingray, a hybrid weapon ...

These highlights were written by the reporters and editors who worked on this story. Outside a repair shop in rural southeastern Illinois, the parts of a massive 3D construction printer sat ...
