There are many 3D printing clusters around the world, specializing in areas like 3D bioprinting and research. But we’ve never seen one that includes all the elements of the AM supply chain in a single space – until now. The Pittsburgh International Airport, managed by the Allegheny County Airport Authority, has just introduced its innovative 3D printing epicenter. Neighborhood 91, developed with the University of Pittsburgh, the Barnes Group Advisors (TBGA), and other partners, is a unique cluster...
“I feel the need…the need for speed!” [Image: IMDB]That iconic line was spoken by US Navy fighter pilots Maverick (Tom Cruise) and Goose (Anthony Edwards) in the 1986 action movie “Top Gun.” But how does this relate to 3D printing? Simple – the technology can help speed things up for businesses, which means more & faster profits. One way to speed up 3D printing is to deploy artificial intelligence or AI. 3D printing is a series of data-rich, Truth poor processes that generate nonstop data...
I hate the term 4D printing. Abhor it. I was horrified when I saw it quicker than anticipated gain currency in our market and in the lexicons of journalists. But, in order to print a future for ourselves and this planet, I’ll happily jump on the wordforge myself in order to help us all. Now, I’ll be the first to admit that Industrie 5.0 is a bit of a stretch. But, it seems logical and this is all you need really. So what is Industrie 5.0? Industrie 5.0 is the autonomous design, development, and manufacturing...
When it comes to medical applications, we’ve seen 3D printing used in the past for healing and repairing wounds, whether through the use of 3D printed bandages, 3D printed blood platelets, or bio-based materials, like nanocellulose. Researchers Dr. Mohamed M. Kanjou, Hassan Abdulhakim, Gabriel Molina de Olyveira, and Pierre Basmaji published a paper, titled “3-D Print Celulose Nanoskin: Future Diabetic Wound Healing,” about using bacterial cellulose for the purposes of wound healing. “Most 3D printers...
Tools and insights to help people choose the right 3D printer, materials, or become more knowledgable about how disruptive technologies can benefit the industry, are very important. This is one of the reasons why a lot of well-established companies and startups are turning to webinars to help users boost their understanding of a 3D printer they already own or to attract new customers. Nevertheless, webinars take up time, usually around an hour or more. On average people spent one-third of their...
LiDar Truly I get too excited talking about technology, and I hope it shows. Although technology is awesome, there always lies a need for it to have a function or application. In a previous article, I briefly discussed cultural heritage and laser scanning. In this follow-up, I will be giving a quick overview of a particular laser scanning technology and some of the various fields it can be used for in. LiDar technology is a surveying method that measures the distance from a target through illumination....
In the recently published ‘Chocolate-based Ink Three-Dimensional Printing (Ci3DP),’ authors Rahul Karyappa and Michinao Hashimoto discuss the tasty merits of making desserts in 3D. Although printing in chocolate is not exactly a novelty anymore, there are still countless ways to serve it up, and here, the researchers from Singapore University of Technology and Design explore using chocolate-based inks in direct-ink writing (DIW)—while also coining a new abbreviation for chocolate-based ink 3D printing:...
We’ve got a lot of business news for you, plus a case study, in today’s 3D Printing News Briefs. TÜV SÜD and thyssenkrupp have signed an MoU, while Dassault Systèmes has a few announcements, including a new collaboration. Agile Manufacturing is expanding its facility to make room for the new technology it’s adopting from Carbon. Finally, CRP Technology has published a case study on its SLS 3D printed CubeSat structure. TÜV SÜD Signs MoU with thyssenkrupp Innovations in Singapore From left: Abhinav...
Finland’s miniFactory continues to refine FFF 3D printing. While previously they have continued to accentuate 3D printing with new 3D printers, technical datasheets, personalization tools, and much more, now they are taking digital fabrication to the next level with Aarni, a process monitoring system that gives users much greater insight into what is happening with their prints in real-time. Failure of prints can be frustrating for users on every level, disrupting the creative and manufacturing...
Last week Tilly Lockey went on stage at the Kyalami Grand Prix circuit in Johannesburg, South Africa, during the SingularityU South African (SA) Summit, for a one-on-one with Benji Rosman, Principal Researcher in the Mobile Intelligent Autonomous Systems group at the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR). The no-filter, expert public speaker, activist, and model has been touring the world to talk about her incredible bionic arms. And did we forget to mention she’s only 14 years old?...
With a focus on creating 3D printed medications, FabRx, a spin-out company from University College London’s School of Pharmacy, United Kingdom (UK), was founded in 2014 by academics who wanted to develop a different personalized patient treatment that could revolutionize the way people consume medicines. FabRx is the creator of Printlets, 3D printed tablets with customized dosages of medication, the result of over five years of research at the Advanced 3D Printing Lab at University College London...
Our good old friend metrology For those of us who were not fully involved with our last series of articles, I did a huge comprehensive overview of 3D metrology and laser scanning. I was able to do a fun deep dive and teach myself the basics of the technology and other organizations involved with the field. Today though, I am going to give a practical explanation of what we can apply this technology to. If you are into art and culture, this may be for you. Microsoft AI for Cultural Heritage...
If you’re interested in attending an industry event that will offer a deep dive into all things metal, medical, and dental 3D printing, then the third annual Additive Manufacturing Strategies summit, co-hosted by 3DPrint.com and SmarTech Analysis, will be right up your alley. For its first year, the event was held in Washington D.C., but moved to Boston last year, which is where it will remain for the 2020 summit. The event will be held at Boston’s Seaport World Trade Center in the city’s Innovation...
“We are on the cusp of once again launching American astronauts on rockets from American soil for the first time since the retirement of the shuttle in 2011. We now need to return to that activity with our international partners as we work to commercialize Low Earth Orbit (LEO). We are looking for breakthroughs that will transform how we live on Earth, and when those breakthroughs occur, capital will flow into what will be commercially habitation capability and commercial space stations in LEO. So...
