We’re all too familiar with the 3D printing post-processing step of removing supports, and lamenting the waste of plastic on yet another dwindling reel of filament. When the material is expensive ...

While ramen support might sound like a help desk for soup, it is actually a technique [GeoDroidJohn] uses to get easy-to-remove support structures on 3D prints. We saw the video below and we have to ...

In the metal AM process, supports in anchor parts prevent distortion. Support structures are made of the same materials as the part and prevent distortion, but add considerable design and ...

Japanese-based equipment manufacturer and developer Enomoto Kogyo has this week unveiled a new 5-axis Hybrid 3D printer they have developed in collaboration with Shizuoka University of Art and Culture ...

Rapid liquid 3D printing uses gel suspension for fast support-free printing. This method is fast, requires no post-processing, and allows for complex internal geometries. While promising, the ...
