This Report shows how tools like artificial intelligence, digital twins, and on-demand manufacturing are no longer emerging concepts, but are already delivering measurable impact across the product lifecycle.
In this article we’ll take a look specifically at FDM printers and explore the factors that influence how long a 3D printer can remain functional and reliable - and what you can do to ensure that your printer stays at the top of its game for longer.
This article delves into the essential roles that jigs and fixtures play in streamlining manufacturing processes.
New 3D printing technique fabricates highly complex and controllable ceramic nanostructures that could be the key to emerging engineering systems.

From Functional Prototypes to Complex, Low-Volume Parts.
Nylon parts are used widely, but when standard nylon is not tough enough, glass filled nylon is a good candidate. This polyamide engineering plastic offers higher strength, stiffness and heat resistance by adding powdered glass to nylon resin or compounding nylon with glass fibres.
MJF 3D printing is a polymer powder-bed fusion process engineered for high throughput and mechanical consistency. Unlike legacy methods, it delivers functional, end-use parts with near-isotropic properties, making it a highly viable alternative to injection molding for low-to-mid volume production.

Additive printing, commonly known as 3D printing, has rapidly emerged as one of the most transformative technologies in manufacturing. By allowing manufacturers to build objects layer by layer, this technique has revolutionized the way products are designed, produced, and customized.
Both FDM & FFF create three-dimensional objects by extruding melted thermoplastic filament through a nozzle, building up layers to form the final product. The distinction between FDM and FFF lies not in the technology itself, but in their origins.
