3D scanning and 3D printing may sound like a natural match for one another, but they don’t always play together as easily and nicely as one would hope. I’ll explain what one can expect by highlighting ...

Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) is a popular method of 3D printing metal parts. It creates thin layers of patterned metal by scanning a laser over a bed of metal powder in predetermined patterns ...

3D scanning is important because the ability to digitize awkward or troublesome shapes from the real world can really hit the spot. One can reconstruct objects by drawing them up in CAD, but when ...

3D scanning is enabling advances in medicine, science, history, education and manufacturing as it provides an innovative and unique approach to digitally capture a myriad of objects. Depending on the ...

The future of dentistry is digital, and the technology is not limited to computerized patient management and digital x-ray systems. It includes 3D intraoral scanners and 3D printers too. "Digital ...

Engineers, designers, and makers are invited to explore cutting-edge 3D technology on November 5th at this free, hands-on event. This exclusive open house offers a rare opportunity for professionals ...

(a) The schematic of the AOSS. The laser beam is deflected by inertial-free acousto-optic scanning. The wavefront of deflected laser is aberration-free due to the AODy being driven by a non-linear ...

It's no secret that finding a comfortably fitting bra can be difficult, often requiring multiple failed attempts. That's where the Braave system comes in, as it uses 3D printing and scanning ...

Protect3d co-founders Kevin Gehsmann, Clark Bulleit and Tim Skapek began making customized 3D printed protective devices while they were still undergraduate engineering students at Duke University.

LINCOLN COUNTY, N.M. (KRQE) — This New Mexico historical site is taking their research one step further into the modern age by using 3D scanning to recreate a miniature plastic version of the Torreon ...
