The fast-growing field of 3D printing has been gaining a lot of attention. But one intriguing project coming out of the University of California Berkeley aims to use natural resources like salt and ...
The LulzBot Mini can print with a much wider variety of materials than most 3D printers. Since 2004, I have worked on PCMag’s hardware team, covering at various times printers, scanners, projectors, ...
Shop System Forust Edition is the first commercially available 3D printing system to process upcycled sawdust into functional, end-use wood parts using high-speed binder jetting technology Based on ...
D printing creates solid objects from the additive process of layering plastics, metal, wood, synthetic fibers, and more.
Forget what you know about conventional 3D printers, because a Seattle-based company has unveiled what appears to be the next generation of 3D construction. Called the Glowforge 3D laser printer, this ...
The future of 3D printing may depend on the ability print things with properties beyond cheap plastic. We've seen composite materials appear for 3D printers before, but the arrival of MakerBot to the ...
An environmentally friendly ink for 3D printing has now been created based on cellulose nanocrystals. This technology can be used to fabricate microstructures with outstanding mechanical properties, ...
Believe it or not, you can now squeeze wood through the nozzle of your 3D printer. This new addition to the maker’s palette of 3D printer filaments comes from the mind of [Kai Parthy]. The new ...
There were more than a million tons of sawdust with nowhere to go. In Maine, where about 90% of the state is forested, sawmills are one of the state’s main industries. Their sawdust byproduct had ...
Reseachers at Harvard University have developed a way to 3D-print a cellular composite with record lightness and stiffness using an epoxy resin. This marks the first time that epoxy is used for ...
