WELLINGTON — From the dirt of Flying Cow Road, the $3 million wonder looks like just another barn. Up close, the bare walls reveal thick, gray, smooth layers of concrete placed on top of each other — ...
"The sensor data and 'digital twin' will help infrastructure professionals better understand how 3D printing can be used and tailored to print larger and more complex cement-based materials for the ...
Building with 3D printers has matured rapidly in recent years, as advances in technology and material science allow for grander and more ambitious designs. The potential uses are also increasingly ...
Student teams presented senior design projects focused on research accessibility and STEM education at the mechanical ...
Taking a cue from the structural complexity of trees and bones, engineers have created a way to 3D-print two types of steel in the same circular layer using two welding machines. The resulting ...
A 3D printed ‘metamaterial’ boasting levels of strength for weight not normally seen in nature or manufacturing could change how we make everything from medical implants to aircraft or rocket parts.
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 ...
A new type of 3D-printed lattice structure has surprised researchers with its strength and light weight. It uses two different lattice structures merged together to eliminate the weak points normally ...
Switching from 3D printing to injection molding can make or break your product’s budget and performance. The right decision depends on production volume, design maturity, and cost structure.
Researchers have developed an ultra-thin optical film that improves the quality of the light used in LCD resin-based 3D ...
