Once the stuff of science fiction, 3D printers are now mainstream tools for creation and innovation. These devices, which transform digital blueprints into physical objects, have dramatically evolved ...

Researchers at Jerusalem’s Hebrew University have developed a method to produce glass objects with a 3D printer that eliminates the need for wasteful chemical glues to bind the layers together. To ...

Undeniably, one of the most profound innovations in both the consumer retail and industrial markets has been 3D printing machinery. Also known as additive manufacturing (AM), 3D printing creates ...

Whether you want to create a three-dimensional object for everyday use or need to prototype a high-quality part for a larger project, Sears think[box] can help. There are two ways to go about 3D ...

Construction robots have been around for a while, automating challenging tasks on job sites. The new kid on this block is called Charlotte, and it's billed as being autonomously capable of building a ...

Color gradient filament is fun stuff to play with. It lets you make 3D prints that slowly fade from one color to another along the Z-axis. [David Gozzard] wanted to do some printing with this effect, ...

I modified a printer a few years ago to handle multiple filaments, but I will admit it was more or less a stunt. It worked, but it felt like you had to draw mystic symbols on the floor of the lab and ...

3D bioprinting technology is bringing a new revolutionary wave to the healthcare industry. This technology combines biomaterials, bioinks, and 3D printing to develop specific structures that mimic ...

I’m the deputy managing editor of the hardware team at PCMag.com. Reading this during the day? Then you've caught me testing gear and editing reviews of laptops, desktop PCs, and tons of other ...

Photocurable 3D printing, widely used for everything from dental treatments to complex prototype manufacturing, is fast and precise but has the limitation of being fragile and easily broken by impact.

A team of researchers has made a breakthrough in the development of cutting-edge 3D-printed materials that have the ability to sense damage, resist impact, and adapt to stress. In a recent study ...
