3D printing is an additive manufacturing process that turns a digital model file into a physical object. A 3D printed object is created by layering materials sequentially using additive processes ...

PhD students spend their time pursuing whatever general paths their supervisor has given them, and if they are lucky, it yields enough solid data to finally write a thesis without tearing their hair ...

Makers, hobbyists and 3D printing enthusiasts searching for a way to keep their printer filament in top condition might be interested in a new 3D printer filament dryer that has launched via ...

Polymer-based conductive nanocomposites, particularly those incorporating carbon nanotubes, are highly promising for the development of flexible electronics, soft robotics and wearable devices.

If you’re concerned about the toxicity levels emitted by your 3D printer, a new project offers a solution to help protect your home or business from harmful pollutants. While it’s exciting to watch ...

3D printing, or additive manufacturing, is becoming more of a staple in the manufacturing process every day. Its presence isn’t limited to simply printing plastics and sheets of metal; manufacturers ...
