Drying filament is important, but drying filament properly is even more important. Learn the science behind what moisture and drying does to polymer filament to get your drying perfect every time.
The right 3D printer lubricant improves the performance and lifespan of your printer, the wrong one can muck up the works. Here's the difference.
The company is teasing the R1, its first standalone laser cutter and engraver. Lasers are already a part of its multi-function machines, but apparently the beam has now earned its own apartment. Details are scarce: full specs are due in late August and pre-orders open in September. Bambu says the R1 applies the same philosophy behind its 3D printers to laser cutting and engraving: less fiddling, more making.
The Prusa XL+, Core One L+, and second-generation Core One+ bring nozzle wiping, revised belts, and other quality-of-life upgrades while existing owners are promised upgrade paths.

Greenguard certification is becoming a selling point for school and home 3D printers. We break down which machines and filament combos actually qualify, and what the label leaves out.
Military-focused drone manufacturer Firestorm says its xCell microfactory kept several HP MJF 3D printers busy aboard the USS Essex, producing more than 1,000 parts, including components for 12 Squall FPV drones, in waves reaching 12 feet on the way to RIMPAC, the multinational military exercise in Hawaii. Service members assembled the drones en route and later flew them in a counter-UAS exercise.
The experimental SegviGen system can automatically identify individual components within a 3D model, and its researchers have already released the code, pretrained models, and an interactive demo.
