An international team of researchers have created a fleet of bee-inspired flying 3D printers for building and repairing structures in-flight.
One of the biggest advantages of ABS is its ability to be smoothed with acetone, an organic solvent. But how does the smoothing process work and how can you do it safely?
From temperature settings, to print speed, to build surface, here are our suggestions for improving bed adhesion when 3D printing PETG.
The Creality Ender 3 is a reliable 3D printer, but it can still suffer from issues like oozing and stringing. Adjusting your Ender 3 retraction settings can help solve these problems.
Understanding the basics of infill densities and patterns will allow you to optimize your final 3D print and printing process efficiency.
Cost of production has been a major barrier despite the fact that Cu raw material prices are far lower than Ag. This is because this large raw material cost difference does not often get translated into equally large nanoparticle dispersion or ink costs. Can this be overcome?
This article describes the TAeTTOOz printable battery technology developed by Evonik and acquired by InnovationLab for upscaling and mass production. In this article, you can learn about the operating principles, the key working characteristics, the material set, production techniques, and emerging applications of this technology

The progress of screen printing towards fine line printing has been incredible going from 100 µm features before 2010 to 70 µm to 2015 to 40 µm in 2018 and now pushing - in development- towards 20 µm and less. In parallel, the wet thickness of the printed line have gone down from 12um or so in 2018 to now just 4um.
As microLEDs inevitably shrink in size, the micro-bumping requirements for the microLED dies becomes more challenging. Direct wafer-based printing based on gravure offset techniques offers a promising solution in this regard. Indeed, this is another field where printed electronics can play a role.
Caracol has introduced thermal monitoring and Infrared (IR) cameras on our #LFAM technology, to deliver zero-defect production and the best properties on final printed parts.
Veco has been moving the industry forward, with unparalleled experience of Electroforming, advanced lithography technology, and accumulated knowledge of metallurgy. So what is Advanced Lithographic Electroforming, and what does it mean for the manufacturing industries?
Painting is a great way to take your PLA 3D prints to the next level. Here’s what it takes to prepare your prints for painting and a guide to different painting techniques for 3D printed parts.
