Fresh from its pivot away from making 3D printers under the AnkerMake brand to making desktop UV printers as EufyMake, Anker gave IFA Berlin attendees a sneak peak at its upcoming Next-Gen Fabric Printer that supports both direct-to-garment (DTG) and direct-to-film (DTF) printing, promising desktop apparel customization without the usual industrial-sized setup. The machine is slated for Q1 2027, and EufyMake is already recruiting would-be beta testers at its Facebook page.
This tiny tugboat has been one of 3D printing’s favorite benchmark prints. Here’s how to read a Benchy, identify common print problems, and decide what to troubleshoot next.
Turn everything from pellets to failed prints to leftover SLS powder into new 3D printing material with 3devo's latest extruder machine.
It's been exactly one year since we started posting a poll to the All3DP homepage every Sunday, and in that time we've gotten some great insights into how you think and do 3D printing.
A year is a short time, but even in that space things have changed a lot at All3DP as we navigate the challenges of a publishing industry in flux and a 3D printing industry that's evolved into something quite different than what we've known and covered in our 12 years of doing this.
So here's to another year of questions and answers. The next few polls will be about us, and what you'd like to see from us.
Available now from the Snapmaker webstore at $89, the PLA Full Spectrum bundle includes four 1 kg spools of semi-translucent PLA, in Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Grey colors. The manufacturer has the light transmission distance values dialed and material profiles available in the latest version of Snapmaker Orca slicer, letting you accurately color mix on your U1 3D printer. If you need a refresher on what Full Spectrum is and means, we explained when we took it for a spin earlier this year.
A post on LinkedIn from the manufacturer invites 3D printer users who could spare a little at the company's Prague HQ to conduct some user experience testing. No details have been shared of what exactly is the subject of the test, other than that it's new, and something they can't share anything about yet.
They're accepting applications on the this questionnaire until September 9. The chosen participants get vouchers for the Prusa e-Shop in return for their time and feedback.
Makera has gotten its software ducks in a row to accommodate the intended audience for its beginner-friendly Z1 machine, and it all looks very familiar.
The promotion also discounts selected Prusa Academy courses, filament, resins, and merch, while CORE One machines get free extras instead of straight price cuts.
PETG resists impact, heat, and moisture better than PLA, so these parts hold up to daily use instead of cracking the first time they take a hit.
FibreSeek's FibreSeeker 3 gives engineers and makers access to CFC parts with tensile strength up to 900 MPa.
Formula 1 hands out different trophies at each race, but the Italian Grand Prix has made something of a sport out of making its awards weird. This year, it 3D printed one. Called "fragile", this week's eccentric installment is a deliberately wobbly-looking stack of cups and bowls 3D printed from nylon powder, then painted, galvanized, and polished. Designed by Stella Scala and Simeone Crispino the Pirelli HangarBicocca contemporary art museum.
G-code may run quietly in the background, but understanding it can give you more control over your printer and help you solve problems faster.
The race for speed in 3D printing might better be characterized as a race for flow. And in that arena, you have options. MicroSwiss recently upped its flow game with the release of the Hyper-CHT nozzle, a riff on Bondtech's Core Heating Technology IP with a custom design that ekes out more millimeters cubed of plastic per second.
We’re used to seeing “sustainable” 3D printing materials arrive with a Benchy and a lot of promises. A blouse is far more interesting. Designer Danit Peleg collaborated with filament maker ColorFabb on a soft, textile-like version of Algenesis’ Soleic bio-based TPU that All3DP featured in January. The result is a soft, textile-like 3D printing material that's biodegradable and free from microplastics. If biodegradable TPU can go from experimental filament to actual clothing, that’s the kind of progress we’re happy to wear.
Rocket engines, Future Vertical Lift, aerospace-grade alloys, supplier qualification, and AM production scale-up dominate the October program — reflecting a sharp rise in DoD-backed additive manufacturing funding.
Stuck in a 3D printing rut? Unsure what to print next? We've got you covered. Here are this month's 50 cool things to 3D print – as always, starting with 5 new picks at the top, followed by reader favorites.
Sunlu and Inslogic's new low-energy filament storage solution doesn't use hot air, just room-temperature air circulation and desiccant for low-moisture long-term storage.

Prusa's next major update for its slicer marks a new chapter for the software, built from the ground up for multi-toolhead machines, multi-plate projects, and a new plug-in marketplace to wrangle rogue single-feature forks into a useful library for all.
Prusa's INDX toolhead spent nine months punted as a DIY-only upgrade kit. Now it also ships as a complete, pre-assembled printer.
