The market nowadays is so full of various 3D printers that choosing the right one can be a difficult and time-consuming task. It is vitally important to study the specifications, but you can also have a look at a number of good actual results of their work. In this regard the Colido 3D printer produced Read more
The number of 3D printing coming with nanotechnology applications is increasing. We have recently seen 3D printed smart glue leverages DNA assembly at macroscale, Fully 3D printed quantum dot LEDs, and 3D printed graphene for biometrical and electronic applications. In this respect researchers are spreading their fabrication technique into more spheres. A good example is Read more
If you’re interested in the future development of additive manufacturing and material science, you will find it important to learn that this year (2015) is going to become one of the most exciting ones – and we’re already halfway through. We have already witnessed that the process of creating materials has been improved and such Read more
In the last couple of years the prices of 3D printers have been steadily reduced, but their development has mainly concerned FDM 3D printers. Those who are willing to get machines capable of printing objects of high resolution have to pay thousands of dollars to buy machines that are based on other technologies. However, there Read more
Nowadays there is a wide variety of options to carry out calculations – with a tablet, smartphone or a laptop. But lots of these options can be developed in simpler forms. Previously we have seen lots of projects that use the calculation power of Raspberry Pi or Arduino, but only a couple of them really Read more
Wevolver is an online platform that will help unite fresh and genuine engineering projects and 3D creators. It has recently opened the public workshop in London in Somerset House. For this opening event they have decided to develop an open source printable InMoov Robots for Good project. This new project was developed by the French Read more
The majority of robots developed by any of us with a 3D printer require a bit more than an Aurdino, some motors or PLA, whereas a group of roboticists from Zoology Department of the Austrian University of Graz show what they can achieve. They’ve developed a great lot of 3D printed fish-like robots that can Read more
There have been numerous fresh hardware start-ups in the 3D printing market, mainly due to Kickstarter and other similar crowdfunding websites. We have also witnessed more substantial companies enter 3D printing industry suggesting their own 3D printing facilities in the past few years. Other companies that make serious effort either towards supporting 3D printing in Read more
A group of scientists are doing their best to create new applications of bio-material for cellulose-based components for 3D printing applications that will replace raw materials derived from fossil. The project is called the Design Driven Value Chains in the World of Cellulose (DWoC) 2.0 project. The VTT Technical Research Centre situated in Finland. This Read more
Janne Kyttanen is a 3D printing pioneer who has used silkworm cocoons and spiderweb structures to develop a sofa design, which was printed in one piece. Kyttanen needed only 2,5 liters of resin substance for the mesh design of a 1,5-metre-long couch named Sofa So Good. The designer himself is a senior creative fellow from Read more
