Researchers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) are looking into the reliability of metal 3D printing and its ...

A research team has found that island scanning, a printing scheme commonly used to prevent stresses from degrading or destroying 3D-printed metal parts, may not be a cure after all. Laser powder bed ...

In the metal AM process, supports in anchor parts prevent distortion. Support structures are made of the same materials as the part and prevent distortion, but add considerable design and ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Carolyn Schwaar is a tech journalist and editor at All3DP Magazine. One broken screw can derail an entire manufacturing process.

Researchers at MIT have developed a rapid 3D-printing technique that uses liquid metal to allow for extremely fast prints. The process can manufacture large aluminum components in minutes, whereas ...

Swiss scientists have created dense, high-strength structures by injecting hydrogel with metal salts of various minerals like ...

As a US Marine Corps combat engineer serving in Iraq, Jim Monroe used MacGyver-like hacks to repair mine rollers. Meant to detonate and clear mines, these heavy studded wheels are mounted on the ...

Metal 3D printers are, by and large, many times more expensive than their FDM and resin-based brethren. It’s a shame, because there’s plenty of projects that would benefit from being able to produce ...

Most of our 3D printers lay down molten plastic or use photosensitive resin. But professional printers often use metal powder, laying out a pattern and then sintering it with a laser. [Metal Matters] ...

Czech Institute of Informatics, Robotics and Cybernetics (CIIRC CVUT) developed a filtering facepiece 3 that was 3D printed by HP's Multi Jet Fusion printer. According to the Hubs Supply Chain ...
