Sgt. Henry David Volpe with the 2nd Marine Logistics Group proudly shows off the HANX drone he designed, which is the Marine Corps' first National Defense Authorizing Act-compliant, 3D printed drone, providing "a secure and adaptable aerial platform for the modern warfighter," the Corps says. NDAA compliant means it is resilient to backdoor programs from adversaries, making it a device that can be used by any Marine for their mission.
Bambu Lab has released version 2.5.0 of Bambu Studio, a grab bag update that adds features and improvements honing in on the mechanical stability of multi-material prints and, among other things, more granular control over surface artifacts.
ASA and ABS might look similar, but substituting one for the other can be a costly mistake. From UV stability to warping headaches, here is everything you need to know before you hit print.
Polycam has released an update to its iOS application that introduces “Space Mode" – an AI-powered feature that reconstructs 3D spaces from video footage, no lidar necessary.
From 60% faster material testing to critical submarine components printed at sea, the U.S. Navy is moving past experimentation to build a self-sustaining, 3D printed frontline.
The printer follows in the original Centauri Carbon’s footsteps with a low price and high expectations, adding multicolor/multi-material capability and improvements to temperature management and out-of-the-box printing of "advanced" materials.
The latest version of Siemens NX X CAD/CAM software delivers enhanced AI-assisted design and CAM workflows, deeper cloud-native collaboration, and expanded automation and intelligent programming features to boost productivity across distributed teams.
But do you care?
Every week sees a new shoe-centric foaming, flexible or otherwise footwear-aligned material release vying for your attention (and sole – ha). I've toyed with printing super soft filaments, but the results have varied wildly. How about you? Have you printed you own shoes at home? What about buying a pair?
A Washington State proposed law would mandate that 3D printers have 'blocking technologies' to identify and stop firearm parts before they're created.
Filamentive Bio HT offers 160°C heat resistance and industrial strength in a bio-based PLA that requires zero annealing.
Bambu Lab and Creality both launched AI-powered character creation tools late last year. PrintU and CubeMe let you turn photographs into cutesy 3D printable characters. Here’s my reluctant experience with both.
The Roamr TPU Air HR (High Rebound) filament series is set to deliver dynamic power in a lightweight profile, bridging the gap between aesthetics and functionality.
Gridfinity is more than a 3D printed storage system. It helps improve your workflow and complete projects.
It's always nice to be able to try something out before doing it for real. Read on to learn all about some great Arduino simulator options!
Looking for a full version of the new SketchUp 2026 to download for free? Read on to see what your options are and what's new in SketchUp.
The CAD software Blender may look like the cockpit of a spaceship, but a new free course aims to prove you don’t need a pilot’s license to make cool, 3D printable stuff. 3D Printing with Blender, taught by Blender veteran Hjalti Hjalmarsson, walks beginners through the full process: designing, modeling, troubleshooting, and fixing objects destined for your printer. It’s entry-level, it’s practical, it demystifies the scary buttons, and best of all it’s free… just like Blender itself.
Stop letting your build volume limit your creativity; master the simple "Cut" and "Split" tools to print massive, multi-part projects on any 3D printer.
Elegoo has finally stamped a January 26 release date on the Centauri Carbon 2, moving the machine from "coming soon" limbo to a concrete launch window. Here's what to expect from this new multicolor machine.
Stop the guesswork and start printing. From exposure times to lift speeds, we’ve got the Elegoo resin settings you need to eliminate failures and capture every crisp detail.
Using 3D printing to create complex internal geometries, this prototype reduces overall material use while significantly improving heat transfer efficiency.
