Need something as strong as steel but lighter in weight? Consider one of these 3D printing services to print with the engineering-grade plastic Ultem.
A new VoxelMatters report finds 3D printers that print technical ceramics have matured greatly over the years along with the available range of materials, so why is industry uptake so slow?
The wait is finally over as Bambu Lab’s big launch of a bigger 3D printer is here. It's dual extrusion, fully enclosed, and is available with a bunch of non-3D printing modes too.
We took the H2D for a spin to find out if it has the features and functions companies need for prototype and production parts.
3D printing can come in handy and help out in other hobbies or ventures. Crocheting is no exception. Check out this useful blocking board!
A three-meter tall, five-meter long woolly mammoth skeleton replica just debuted at the National Museum in Cardiff, Wales. 3D printed by Replicate 3D on Modix large-scale 3D printers, we believe, using 3D scans of real bones found in the region.
More than a dozen 3D printers have launched since the last Rapid +TCT Expo in June 2024. Here's your list of the latest to check out at this year's event.
Designing and 3D printing functional model roller coasters is a hobby for the truly thrill-obsessed, involving hundreds of hours in CAD software, 3D printing, and painting, but the results, like this one from the engineer behind LTS Coasters, are a giant leap from the oval locomotive tracks of yesteryear.
