GE Additive team returns to the Cincinnati Zoo, this time to create a metal 3D printed cast.

The first time we talked about the use of metal 3D printing in a zoo, it was 4 years ago when Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden, a zoo that harbours about 2,000 animals, called...

Meet Factor 4, UltiMaker’s new industrial-grade 3D printer

Global 3D printing company UltiMaker releases Factor 4, a new industrial-grade 3D printer, engineered for the development, production, and deployment of process-critical tools and components. With support for engineering materials, direct drive dual extrusion, onboard...

Integrating Additive Manufacturing for superior suspension systems

Traditional suspension component design has been largely constrained by the limitations of subtractive manufacturing methods, leading to inevitable compromises in design complexity and system integration. Additive manufacturing, however, breaks these bounds, offering engineers unprecedented...

New elastomer-based ink can help 3D print flexible devices without mechanical joints

For engineers working on soft robotics or wearable devices, keeping things light is a constant challenge: heavier materials require more energy to move around, and – in the case of wearables or prostheses –...

New plastic coating solution enhances functionality of 3D printed parts

A research team from the University of Nottingham, has developed a new coating for plastic particles that would increase the functionality of 3D printed parts. To do so, they used supercritical carbon dioxide to create...
