RIT engineering technology researcher Christopher Lewis develops self-healing materials to improve 3D printing processes and ...

[Slant 3D] knows a lot about optimizing 3D prints so that they can be cranked out reliably with minimal need for post-processing, and in this short video he uses a cube as a simple example of how a ...

In this article we troubleshoot printing the first layer and answer questions about inaccurate tolerances in a fused filament fabrication process. The following article is a continuation of our series ...

Engineers from the Max-Planck-Institut für Eisenforschung (MPIE) in Düsseldorf and the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology in Aachen have combined ancient and modern technology by developing a ...

3D printers are affordable enough that almost anyone can buy one, but should you? Before you dive in, here's what to consider—about materials, possible uses, software, and much more. Since 2004, I ...

When you’re spitting out G-Code for a 3D print, you can pick all kinds of infill settings. You can choose the pattern, and the percentage… but the vast majority of slicers all have one thing in common ...

As is the case with items that are manufactured in more traditional manners, it's certainly possible for 3D-printed products to be counterfeited. A new system could help identify such bogus goods, by ...
