The 3D Printing Process and More The research builds on earlier work in which the team used origami and kirigami to shape soft materials made of polymers. However, they wanted to apply these ...

Anticipating a boom in nuclear energy, the US Department of Energy’s Manufacturing Demonstration Facility (MDF) at Oak Ridge ...

Ceramic 3D printing offers complex, high-performance parts, but technical barriers are holding it back. From binder ...

In experiments, the technique was capable of 3D printing complex shapes such as letters and spirals through layers of biomaterial such as a pig’s heart, belly fat, and kidney.

Novel 3D printing method to fabricate complex metal-plastic composite structures Date: November 30, 2022 Source: Waseda University Summary: In recent years, research interest in the 3D printing of ...

The group is also experimenting with a combination of kirigami and 3D printing to make even more complex shapes. "When you fold a piece of paper, the level of complexity is somewhat limited, and ...

Scientists develop new method for 3D-printing flat-pack furniture that self-assembles into complex shapes as it dries A special 'wood ink' can be 3D-printed and forms different shapes when it dries ...

It's a highly complex shape, but easy enough to manufacture using a laser powder bed fusion 3D printer, and the researchers tested the resulting cube to find it 50% stronger than cast magnesium ...

Scientists have tried to use additive manufacturing—better known as 3D printing —to recreate complex structures from hands to hearts. But the technology stumbles when integrating multiple materials ...

3D printing is a good way to increase engagement with science and engineering in schools. And in our research, we also met older people seeking to update their skills by learning 3D printing.
