Stratasys' new F870 combines a meter-long heated build chamber, carbon-fiber material support, integrated drying, and enough filament for days-long factory tooling jobs.
First teased back in 2024, Flashforge's CJ270 promised 10+ millions colors and transparency from its material-jetting resin system. Oh, and a 2025 launch. That window passed us by, but it's ready now and starts shipping in October.
Last week Snapmaker made its FullSpectrum PLA bundle available, and now Prusa Research's Prusament is here with its spin on the concept. The Prusament PLA ColorMix bundle is a seven spool set, including new translucent Prusament PLA in five colors – Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black, and White, plus new ColorMix Gold Glitter and Silver Glitter colors, which can be used to add sparkly shading in designs. Available individually at $32.99, a full set of the seven can be picked currently for $179.99, thanks to Prusa's ongoing Back-to-School sale. Read more in the blog post detailing the release.
The G1X Series Kickstarter campaign has officially surpassed $15M with support from over 3,500 backers. Secure $4,000+ in combined campaign savings and cash back before the biggest discount ends on September 11.
The UL Research Institutes new study of five metal-filled FDM filaments found that, compared with conventional polymer filaments, metal composites generally emitted fewer particles by number and lower levels of VOCs (fumes). Downside: the size of emitted matter was larger but mostly still below 1 micron. Relatively little of the embedded metal powder becomes airborne during printing, researchers found. The paper does not name the filament brand, but the tested lineup very closely matches Markforged’s Metal X material system.
When you master supports in Bambu Studio, you improve supported surfaces, make removal easier, save time, and reduce wasted filament.
IFA Berlin is a slog to walk, but worth it for a look at the hardware that’ll keep creative tech interesting over the next year. We found 3D printer debuts between a lot, and we mean a lot, of CNC machines, UV printers and innovative laser tech.
3D Spark’s new Voluminate platform promises to turn old drawings, DXFs, and even photos into useful 3D models in minutes. That sounds ideal for obsolete spare parts, so we tried it.
The free guide rounds up 35+ grants, scholarships, and awards that could help schools pay for printers, materials, classroom enrichment, and professional development, while also pointing educators toward federal funding options. It includes grant-writing tips, application windows, grade-level guidance, and practical advice for planning a 3D printing program. Educators can access the 2026 MakerBot Grant Guide here.
From custom motorcycle seat trays to classic VW Golf grilles, Revopoint’s MetroY Ultra 3D scanner brings real-world components seamlessly into a digital environment.
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.
