One step closer to 3D printing models of life-like 3D organs
A team of University of Colorado researchers has developed a new strategy for transforming medical images, such as CT or MRI scans, into incredibly detailed 3D models on the computer. The advance marks an...
A look at Rotational multimaterial 3D printing
A research team from Harvard, has developed a Rotational multimaterial printing technology for creating helical filaments. Using this new approach, the team designed and fabricated artificial muscles and springy lattices for use in soft...
Rounding off another demanding year: what the AM industry should keep from 2022 to move forward in 2023
From mergers & acquisitions to bankruptcies, expected & unexpected milestones, 2022 led us through an emotional rollercoaster.
As 2022 draws to a close, 3D ADEPT Media is looking back over a year difficult to...
An OpeN-AM experimental platform enables to study the microscopic behavior of additive metal welds as they’re being created
The experimental platform system is called OpeN-AM, with OpeN being short for operando neutrons, a term for using neutrons to study something while it’s operating, and AM for additive manufacturing.
Researchers at the Department of...
Could metal 3D printed high-temperature, high-pressure receivers help to a decarbonized world?
While harnessing energy from the sun is key to a decarbonized world, getting to those higher temperatures needed in industry is often the Holy Grail for industrials. To reach them, they should either use...
Lockheed Martin and Sintavia to explore metal additive manufacturing opportunities as an alternative to castings and forgings
This is an interesting partnership: a global security and aerospace company (Lockheed Martin) on the one hand and a designer and manufacturer of advanced propulsion and thermodynamic systems (Sintavia) join forces to expand research...
ANDRITZ Savonlinna Works Oy & FAME 3D print large pressure vessel
Pressure vessels are enclosed containers that hold liquids, vapors, and gases at a pressure significantly higher or lower than the ambient pressure. Their size varies from whether they are use within a residential environment...
TRUMPF 3D prints critical part for particle accelerator for CERN-coordinated I.FAST project
If you read this article, you may have seen a pure-copper accelerator component produced using AM as part of the EU-funded I.FAST project coordinated by CERN. I.FAST which stands for Innovation Fostering in Accelerator...
This 3D printed non-electric humidifier is made out of recycled industrial waste
A humidifier is a device, primarily an electrical appliance, that increases humidity (releases cool mist into the air) in a single room or an entire building. It turns out that the same device can...
