Building hot rods remained basically the same for decades, with tried-and-true “old school” methods being used to create increasingly complex builds. Computers really changed the game, allowing things ...

Vestas is the largest maker of wind turbines in the world. Some of the world's largest and most advanced manufacturers in oil, gas, electric, and wind are embracing 3D printing’s ability to deliver ...

Building 3D printed parts with artificial intelligence (AI) can optimize the design process by generating complex geometries that are lightweight yet strong. This can be difficult to achieve manually.

MIT researchers developed a 3D-printing platform that can utilize multiple functional materials to fully print a complex electronic device, like an electric linear motor, in a matter of hours.

Researchers have developed a new two-photon polymerization technique that uses two lasers to 3D print complex high-resolution structures. The advance could make this 3D printing process less expensive ...

With so many organizations around the globe adjusting their operations to meet sustainability goals, companies have begun looking for new ways to cut back on their environmental impact. As the ...

3D printers have become versatile, affordable, and powerful enough to print all sorts of things — including car parts. The process has also developed beyond DIY and prototyping (there are even 3D ...

The accomplishment "paves the way for long-distance and long-duration missions where creating spare parts, construction components, and tools on demand will be essential." When you purchase through ...

A broken motor in an automated machine can bring production on a busy factory floor to a halt. If engineers can't find a replacement part, they may have to order one from a distributor hundreds of ...
