Uncovering the source of the discrepancy can involve scrutinizing estimating practices, material pricing, cost allocation ...

Shimizu Corporation develops spray-based 3D concrete printing - integrating a gantry robot with a material spray simulator.

Engineers at MIT have taken a metal that usually trades strength for lightness and pushed it into an entirely new class, ...

MIT’s 3D-printed aluminum alloy is five times stronger than cast metal and could transform aircraft and industry.

In a move designed to expand access to affordable metal 3D printing for small- to medium-sized manufacturers and to decentralize additive manufacturing, Xact Metal has introduced new metal powders. In ...

Scientists at EPFL have reimagined 3D printing by turning simple hydrogels into tough metals and ceramics. Their process allows multiple infusions of metal salts that form dense, high-strength ...

Vat photopolymerization is a 3D printing technique in which a light-sensitive resin is poured into a vat, and then selectively hardened into a desired shape using a laser or UV light. But this process ...

A project at NIST has developed a new way to monitor and assess 3D printing of metals. Finding and correcting defects inadvertently created inside a 3D printed part is one of the biggest challenges ...

Avon-based Mears Machine Corp., which has invested millions of dollars in 3D metal printers since last year, sees the technology as a key that could unlock massive growth for the company in the coming ...

Forward-looking: Cornell University scientists have unveiled a new method for producing superconductors, using 3D printing to create materials with record-setting properties. The advance offers a ...

There’s nothing high-tech about a T-nut. It’s an unimpressive steel rectangle with a threaded hole in the middle and squared-off edges that slide into slots on a metal scaffold. But the way T-nuts are ...

Researchers developed a 3D printing-based method to tailor metal alloys by composition and structure, creating stronger, application-specific materials. (Nanowerk News) Caltech scientists have ...
