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.
Glossary of 3D Printing Terms
You want to use 3D printing, but don’t know how 3D printers work? Or maybe you are already using 3D printing but don’t really understand the way these impressive 3D machines work. That is why, today, we chose to focus on these amazing 3D printing systems.
Though aluminum 3D printing has traditionally been a challenge, big advances have been made in recent years. Here's everything you need to know about aluminum additive manufacturing, from applications and technologies, to what alloys are available.
The emergence of 3D printing has reshaped many industries, from manufacturing and construction to automotive and aerospace. What was previously seen as a novelty or niche solution by some has become a maturing technology, shifting from “rapid prototyping” to “additive manufacturing.”
What is 3D printing? This article goes over the basics of 3D printing, otherwise known as additive manufacturing, covering its engineering principles and applications.

Here’s what to do if you notice clicking noises, under-extrusion, or other print quality issues caused by extruder skipping on the Ender 3 by Creality.
Unwanted lines in 3D prints can show up for many reasons and take different forms. Here we look at the most common types of lines in 3D prints and how to eliminate them.
KIT researchers are developing a process with which, for the first time, mirrors with a reflection of more than 99 percent can be printed in variable sizes
With just one month before the South Asian 3D printing trade show, we look at the events and showcases visitors will be able to take part in.
Following a successful crowdfunding campaign, the FibreSeeker 3 from FibreSeek is bringing continuous carbon fiber printing to a new audience.
In this episode, we explore how researchers have developed an AI system that can watch a 3D print as it's being made, detect mistakes, and automatically correct them before the print fails
In this episode, we explore a new 3D printable material that can quickly transform into a strong, bone-like scaffold capable of supporting new bone growth. Learn how this breakthrough could lead to faster recovery times and improve treatments for patients with serious bone injuries.
