3D printing technology is changing the way we manufacture everything from toys and clothes to human tissue. The process of printing a three-dimensional object is known as additive manufacturing. A ...

It may seem distinctly low-tech compared to some of the many technology trends I write about, but 3D and 4D printing will have very wide applications – and could be particularly powerful when combined ...

A new technique enables makers to finely tune the color, shade, and texture of 3D-printed objects using only one material. The method is faster and uses less material than other approaches.

A team of scientists in China developed a method of 3D printing that can form objects almost instantly. Here's what the team ...

Use left and right arrow keys to seek audio. Researchers have created a new 3D printing technique that could replace traditional 3D printers that take far to long to create desired objects. The ...

The global 3D printing market is entering a period of rapid expansion, with Precedence Research projecting its value to climb ...

Hi3D is celebrating its first anniversary with a limited-time promotional campaign that includes discounted subscription ...

A research team led by chemist Dmitry Momotenko has developed a new 3D printing technique for manufacturing ultrasmall metallic objects. Using this technique, the researchers aim to substantially ...

A volumetric 3D printing method forms objects inside hanging resin droplets that detach by gravity, eliminating manual steps between prints and enabling faster serial production. (Nanowerk Spotlight) ...

If you find 3D printers to be just a little too coldly futuristic, this contraption might be more to your liking. Scientists from Cornell University have created a machine that knits solid 3D objects ...

When Chris and Brianne Hubbart arrived in East Dundee last year, they were armed with chainsaws and other tools needed to carve a piece of art from a tree stump in the front of the Dundee Library.

3D printers are great for rapid prototyping and building low-volume, specialized parts, but they sure can take a while. Today’s 3D printers might be called “3D printers” but really, the print heads ...
