Multi-material 3D printing combines the functional properties of different materials (e.g., mechanical, electrical, color) within a single object that is fabricated without manual assembly. However, ...

A new technique enables makers to finely tune the color, shade, and texture of 3D-printed objects using only one material. The method is faster and uses less material than other approaches.

In May-June 2022, IPI conducted an online survey assessing how collecting institutions are using 3D printing and interacting with 3D printed objects and materials. The survey covered three major areas ...

Museums are experiencing an increased presence of 3D printed objects in collections and higher instances of use in preservation activities, amplifying the critical need for preservation guidelines and ...

Engineers have developed a high-throughput, multimaterial 3D inkjet printer that uses computer vision to rapidly and automatically control the amount of material being deposited during the printing ...

Researchers at the Zurich-based ETH public university, along with a US-based startup called Inkbit, have done the impossible. They’ve printed a robot hand complete with bones, ligaments and tendons ...

Many of us adored big construction machinery as children. Once we got past the cute, tiny age, it became uncool to gasp with shock and awe at diggers and bulldozers for some reason . [Ivan Miranda] ...

Researchers have demonstrated the ability to 3D print objects that can then change shape, even folding and unfolding, when heated through an electrical current or with ambient air temperature. The ...

A 3D-printing technique can incorporate invisible tags into objects. The process could be used to create tags with the convenience of QR codes without the unsightly appearance, as well as to turn ...

Beyond having the best graphics in the life simulation genre, InZOI also has a handful of modern features that allow players to get truly creative when it comes to customization. For example, players ...
