Bambu Lab's prolific range of 3D printers now numbers in the double-digits: they're a sliding scale of capabilities and feature-sets that can be tricky to tell apart. From the "gateway" A1 to the 7-nozzle all-capable H2C, here's how they all compare.
The compact laser powder bed fusion system is being hyped up as a consumer-grade, garage-friendly 'household' metal 3D printer for $4,888, but its safety remains obscured behind a wall of AI images.
Procolored is offering up a heady mix of functions and features in the X One, including the notoriously dirt-generating laser cutting and engraving alongside the notoriously dirt-sensitive UV printing. It’s a bold combination, and one you should think twice before backing.
Los Angeles-based R3 Printing debuts a pair of liquid-cooled, open-material FDMs made in the USA and engineered for reliable, cloud-optional production.
Looking to 3D print with stronger-than-metal PEEK polymer? Our updated guide covers the material and the best 3D printers for the job.
FDM’s dirty little secret is Z-strength: layers that cool too quickly before the next layer arrives making prints delaminate like a stale croissant. Researchers at Germany's OTH Regensburg want to fix that with a laser-enhanced FDM printhead that preheats the surface just before fresh filament lands. Laser-assisted FDM has been studied for years and shown to improve layer bonding, so why is it still mostly trapped in the lab? Cost, safety, and reliability may all be culprits. Still, if this approach works commercially, FDM’s Z-strength problem might finally meet its Bond villain.
We uploaded the same test part to 10 online SLS 3D printing services to compare pricing, lead times, materials, and quoting quirks for functional nylon parts.
Inside the launch: All3DP spoke with Formlabs’ SLS product manager to examine the engineering behind the Fuse X1, its innovations, and its substantial performance claims.
The company scales up its budget range further with the A2L, a larger build volume printer with H2-series module compatibility. Just don't expect a laser.
By switching to a 30-W CO2 laser source, Sinterit’s latest compact system enables high-speed printing of white, natural, and colorable powders.
Looking to get a new build plate but can't decide what kind to buy? Let us help you to make the best decision for your 3D printer bed!
By integrating Meltio’s metal wire DED technology, Italian specialist Eurobearings is replacing weeks of traditional machining and welding with days of additive manufacturing to repair and produce massive industrial components.
With a massive 800mm build volume and a 3kg/hour extrusion rate, Peopoly’s pellet-fed disruptor is built to slash material costs by 90% and replace expensive industrial systems.
Berlin-based BigRep and Endless Industries are bringing continuous carbon fiber reinforcement to the BigRep IPSO 105, targeting stronger large-format parts at lower cost than traditional composite manufacturing.
Coupled with machines starting at $15,000, ErectorBot’s hopes its Aibuild software integration can tame the complexity of industrial-scale printing, and make it accessible for any size manufacturer.
Our decision maker’s guide to the best metal 3D printers for small parts, batch manufacturing, and aerospace & defense. Plus, a metal 3D printing tech primer.
Newcomer Duroxen has taken to Kickstarter to get its eponymous desktop CNC lathe off the ground and into your workshop. But what is a lathe even, and what does that sub-$1,000 pledge get you?
The Pro4's upgraded heating unit may finally deliver the solid temperature consistency your moisture-sensitive filaments have been asking for.
It's the real deal, launching last week after a short debut at Rapid + TCT. The Canvas filament changer unit – along with all the components needed for the upgrade – costs $55 from Elegoo's webstore. If you order one now, though, you’re in for a wait. Lead times have ballooned; first-batch orders ship this month, but an order placed today won’t leave Elegoo's warehouse until late August. Oof.
Stop warping and cut noise without breaking the bank by building a professional grade 3D printer enclosure for under $100.
