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.
It’s hard to believe that 3D printing has only been around since the 1980s. This technique, also called additive manufacturing, has proved so immensely useful that it’s evolving very quickly. The process was originally devised to make prototypes for one-off or small-batch parts. Materials were added progressively to build up a solid object, based on 3D digital models. It was much more cost-efficient than cutting source materials down, as no waste was apparently produced.
By utilizing innovative 3D printing materials and processes, DREIGEIST and BASF Forward AM are bringing rapid tool applications and injection molding into the future.
In this episode, we discuss a new 3D printing approach by researchers at Columbia University that allows for desserts - specifically cheesecake - to be created using a 3D printer.
