By backing Norsk’s wire-fed titanium process, the U.S. is testing whether additive manufacturing can solve real bottlenecks in maritime manufacturing.
Nike is testing a new initiative that uses additive manufacturing to create a flexible, digital platform for limited-run sneaker designs and customer personalization.
After a 3D printed turbine prototype successfully passed a grueling six-year continuous operational test, the ORNL-backed technology is now ready to scale, offering a cost-cutting blueprint to unlock clean energy at thousands of U.S. dams.
By coordinating 100 lasers across a massive 3,050 mm build plate, this ultra-large-format system for titanium, aluminum, steel and more, eliminates the need for welding rocket thrusters or structural aerospace parts.
I spent three weeks testing these seamless, 3D printed lattice sneakers to see if they offer real-world support or if they’re just a high-tech novelty.
While machines have reached industrial maturity, a critical "competency gap" is stalling production lines—and traditional engineering degrees aren’t providing the fix.
By integrating generative AI directly into the Flow Studio platform, Autodesk enables creators to bypass tedious manual modeling and generate production-ready, editable 3D assets in seconds.
Precision Additive claims its new PA series hits speeds of 10,000 cm³/h — ten times faster than industry leaders — but is it a breakthrough or just bold marketing?
The newly formed Mastrex ecosystem launches with a versatile lineup of six machines, offering a scalable path from entry-level desktop metal printing to high-output industrial production.
While desktop printing shifts to LCD, industrial giants like 3D Systems are betting big on lasers again and slashing production timelines from months to mere days on large tooling.
Unveiled at Formnext 2025 in Frankfurt, TPM3D says its space-saving setup aims to bring pro-grade SLS performance to studios, labs, and small production teams.
Today, one of the main barriers to adopting scanning isn’t cost, it’s confidence. HP’s Michel Georges Encrenaz and Creaform’s Gabrielle Williams share expert advice for turning real-world objects into ready-to-print files.
The answers involve hot-swappable batteries , a 4-million-points-per-second scanning speed, and bundled design software. Everything, that is, except the price tag.
Variable-hardness TPU can deliver parts ranging from super squishy to dense and rubbery depending on how you print it.
