Celestiq engineers aren’t just drawing up three-dimensional CAD files and pressing Ctrl+P, though. Before graduating to ...

Plastic waste is a big problem in our world today. It's important for makers who use 3D printing technology (which generates plastic objects) to consider the waste hierarchy paradigm. Here's the thing ...

D printing creates solid objects from the additive process of layering plastics, metal, wood, synthetic fibers, and more.

While it's possible to 3D-print plastic or metal items, printing single items made of both materials is still quite difficult. Scientists have developed a new method of doing so, however, that could ...

In 2024, the University of Maine unveiled the world’s largest 3D printer, which can print objects up to 29 meters long.

A commonly used material in 3D printing is plastics. The reason being is that it is readily available, cost effective, and allows for rapid prototyping. However, plastics pose an environmental concern ...

FH Münster University of Applied Sciences graduates Louisa Graupe and Julika Schwarz have designed a 3D-printed prototype ...

Current 3D printers employ either plastic or metal only, and the conventional method to coat 3D plastic structures with metal is not environment-friendly and yields poor results. Now, scientists have ...
