Researchers working at the nanoscale have found that 3D-printed metal parts can stay mechanically strong even when they contain large numbers of defects. A peer-reviewed study on nano-architected ...
Scientists at EPFL in Switzerland have found a way to grow dense metal structures inside a simple water-based gel, producing parts that can withstand 20 times more pressure than those made with ...
After announcing an expansion to its material compatibility with new high-performance polymer powders earlier this week, Farsoon has announced another, this time to its hardware capability with not ...
Our current level of technological development does not allow us to build things in space. In the best-case scenario, we are capable of assembling stuff in orbit, but the actual build of structures ...
Honda's beginnings were in true engineering; their early days were filled with innovation that ultimately led them to become ...
Space Science: The recently launched Cygnus NG-20 robotic spacecraft is currently docked with the International Space Station (ISS). The resupply mission is packed with supplies for the ISS crew as ...
As a US Marine Corps combat engineer serving in Iraq, Jim Monroe used MacGyver-like hacks to repair mine rollers. Meant to detonate and clear mines, these heavy studded wheels are mounted on the ...
At this point, it’s safe to say the novelty of desktop 3D printing has worn off. The community has largely come to terms with the limitations of extruded plastics, and while we still vehemently ...
Among the more than 8,000 lb (3,600 kg) of cargo that blasted off from Cape Canaveral on the 30th of January, bound for the International Space Station, were two firsts: the world’s first metal 3D ...
Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Carolyn Schwaar is a tech journalist and editor at All3DP Magazine. One broken screw can derail an entire manufacturing process.
Instead of using more and more concrete and steel, a research team is focusing on intelligent shapes, digital manufacturing, ...
Every now and then we’ll see a 3D printer that can print an entire house out of concrete or print an entire rocket out of metal. But usually, for our budget-friendly hobbyist needs, most of our 3D ...
