Fashion Tech: Creating “smart clothes” with 3D printing and a liquid metal-alginate ink
With the advancements in fashion tech, we could wear in the future, clothes that might be able to monitor our health, manage our body temperature or communicate with smartphones.
To achieve this, scientists need to...
The design of architected surfaces would increase the efficiency of 3D Printed heat exchangers by 50% compared to a conventionally manufactured exchanger
A heat exchanger is a device used to transfer heat or thermal energy between two or more fluids or from one medium to another.
Heat exchangers can be explored in a wide range of practical...

“NINJAS” Researchers tested new method of 3D Printing Electronics in zero-gravity environment
Any research that leads to productive results in a zero-gravity environment can positively affect astronauts’ experience in Aeronautics and Space as the state or condition of weightlessness is predominant in such environment.
A recent research...
Does nature hold the answer to sustainability? A look at biomimicry and its practical use within the 3D Printing sphere.
If everything we use comes from natural resources and that natural ecosystems are often described as models of sustainability, does that mean that every 3D printed product inspired by nature is de facto a...
Here is how Additive Manufacturing help turn ‘oxygenated water’ into non-toxic rocket fuel
The three things Reid is trying to overcome using the gyroid in the catalyst bed is loss of catalyst, a large pressure drop, and maximising thrust balanced against the concentration of hydrogen peroxide –...
German-Canadian consortium ambitions to automate Adaptive Laser Additive Manufacturing AI-SLAM
Canadian machine builders receive many orders from the mining and petroleum industries. For example, rock crusher teeth used by the mining industry need to be regularly overhauled. Using the laser material deposition (LMD) process,...
