Science fiction envisions rapid 3D printing processes that can quickly create new objects out of any number of materials. But in reality, 3D printing is still limited in the properties and types of ...

Researchers have invented a new solvent-free polymer for digital light printing (DLP), a type of 3D printing that essentially pulls solid objects out of a shallow pool of resin one layer at a time.

FDM stands for fused deposition modeling, but what does that mean, and how does it differ from other 3D printing methods? Let ...

Spend any time at an online craft market like Etsy, and you’ll notice a lot of the products there are 3D printed or include 3D-printed parts. But what do we actually mean by that, and how easy is it ...

One-pot recipes make preparing meals quick and easy. And one-pot 3D-printing could do the same for additive manufacturing. Now, researchers publishing in ACS Central Science have demonstrated a new ...

If you're looking to make a 3D print that will stand the test of time, you'll want to consider making it using the strongest ...

Compared to single-nozzle 3D printers, dual extruder 3D printers use two nozzles to print with different colors and materials, reducing purge waste significantly. This guide explains the types of dual ...

Perhaps one of the oldest dreams of a science-fiction future is the ability to create something where once there was nothing. If we could create solid, stable objects out of thin air, the idea of ...

Art, sculptures and even mass-produced objects are often built to last. Ancient Greek sculptures from thousands of years ago may have lost their color (and sometimes a few limbs) but are otherwise in ...
