A novel 3D-printing process called selective separation sintering (SSS), has been developed by an engineer from the University of Southern California (USC). The process has won the first prize in the NASA In-Situ Materials Challenge, due to its breakthrough application in the construction of physical structures in space.
Royal DSM, a global science-based company active in health, nutrition and materials, is partnering with Nexeo Solutions, a global chemical and plastics distributor, to bring new, high-value, performance filaments to customers who do 3D printing using fused deposition modeling (FDM) technology.
3D-printed figures are often produced with the aid of costly or customized 3D printers, using various materials such as; glass, sugars, thermoplastics, ceramics, and metals.
Over the past several weeks, Virginia Commonwealth University anthropology professor Bernard Means, Ph.D., has been visiting the American Civil War Museum in Richmond to 3-D scan some of the museum’s treasures, including a 1-inch thick iron plate that was shot with a cannon to test the armor of the ironclad CSS Virginia – better known as the Merrimack.
Materialise NV, is proud to announce a partnership with HOYA Vision Care, a division of HOYA Group, a global med-tech company and the leading supplier of innovative high-tech and medical products, to co-create and manufacture parts for high-quality visualisation equipment and vision examination systems for optical shops.
Aether have launched an advanced yet cost-effective 3D bioprinter called Aether 1, which integrates 12 of the world’s most sophisticated machines into one simple, user-friendly, and aesthetic desktop device. The Aether 1 bioprinter is designed to 3D print with as high as 10 materials, and can integrate different fabrication techniques in one print, all from a single 3D file. This will enable users to express their creativity in an entirely different way.
An innovative method to 3D print brain structures has been developed by a group of US and Australian researchers. This capability will allow them to develop nerve cells to imitate a real brain.
The Fleet Ballistic Missile program from the U.S. Navy have successfully conducted test flights of three Trident II D5 Fleet Ballistic Missiles, featuring a first-of-its-kind 3D-printed missile component known as a connector backshell.
Arthritis and sport-related injuries are a common occurrence in the elderly, athletes and others who experience severe pain as a result of damaged cartilage tissues. Scientists have now demonstrated how to use 3-D bioprinting to create cartilage tissues that could resolve this issue.
Optomec, a company that supplies advanced production-grade additive manufacturing solutions for 3D printed electronics and 3D printed metals, has secured numerous orders for its sophisticated Aerosol Jet 5X printing system.
