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.
When we think of 3D Printing, perhaps the first thing that comes to mind is a plastic component that is not quite strong enough to be used for industrial applications. However, carbon fiber filament is changing the history of 3D Printing with its reliable and highly strong mechanical properties.
Conveyor belt 3D printers promise ultra-long parts and effortless batch printing. But are these hybrid FDM machines reliable enough for serious printing projects?
In this episode, we talk about how a team from TUM has developed a system composed of collaborative drones that can create structure in remote and/or disastrous areas.

When we choose what to buy, we usually look at the expiration date, brand, quality seals, ingredients, and price. But how do you know if the manufacturer is fully honest – or that the product was properly stored during shipping or while on the shelf?

An international team of researchers have created a fleet of bee-inspired flying 3D printers for building and repairing structures in-flight.
3D printing works with a wide variety of 3D printing materials, among which we can find plastics, resins, metals… and even food! In FDM printing, thermoplastics are used, a type of 3D printer material that at high temperatures becomes liquid allowing it to flow, and when it cools down enough (below its glass transition temperature) it becomes solid.
