“Our cold metal fusion technology offers a process that is at least three times faster and more scalable than any other kind of 3D printing,” says Carrington. “Per-part prices are generally 50 to 60 ...

Aluminum is prized for being lightweight and strong, but at high temperatures it loses strength. This has limited its use in ...

Scientists at EPFL have reimagined 3D printing by turning simple hydrogels into tough metals and ceramics. Their process allows multiple infusions of metal salts that form dense, high-strength ...

Additive manufacturing leaders are focusing defense, helping the U.S. military move from 'futuristic visions' to ...

Chris Borge] has made (and revised) many of his own tools using a combination of 3D printing and common hardware, and recently decided to try metal casting. Having created his own tapping arm, he ...

3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing (AM,) has evolved in leaps and bounds in recent decades to become an exciting emerging manufacturing technology in multiple industries. This article ...

Researchers at MIT have developed a rapid 3D-printing technique that uses liquid metal to allow for extremely fast prints. The process can manufacture large aluminum components in minutes, whereas ...

The first metal 3D printer that will be used in space is on its way to the International Space Station. The Cygnus NG-20 supply mission, which is carrying the 180kg (397 lbs) printer, launched on ...

The accomplishment "paves the way for long-distance and long-duration missions where creating spare parts, construction components, and tools on demand will be essential." When you purchase through ...

Metal 3D printing has long promised aerospace-grade parts at desktop scale, but titanium has stubbornly resisted that vision.
