Sci-fi devices become real all the time, and we'd argue the 3D printer is one of those. I distinctly remember as a teen when these things were becoming popular, and we all thought people would be ...

A Firestorm xCell micro 3D printing factory loading onto a C-130 to print Tempest UAV systems at a U.S. Air Force base. Inside a standard shipping container, a "factory-in-a-box" hums to life. It is ...

Although the overall U.S. manufacturing sector ended 2023 on a sour note and has stayed there so far this year, one sliver of manufacturing called additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, is still ...

One may think that when it comes to 3D printing, slicing software is pretty much a solved problem. Take a 3D model, slice it into flat layers equal to layer height, and make a toolpath so the nozzle ...

3D printing is still a relatively novel method of manufacture, and has already diversified massively in terms of printing methods, materials, and design possibilities, finding niche application in a ...

Researchers have taken bees as a model to develop a swarm of cooperative, 3D-printing drones. Under human control, these flying robots work as a team to print 3D materials for building or repairing ...

Pratt & Whitney and GKN Aerospace want to create structural components for military aircraft using 3D printing and test this ...
