A New Ally for Preserving Cultural Heritage: Realistic 3D Printed Models
Extensive destruction has taken its toll on history, but for the last few years, some archaeological sites that have been looted, ravaged and eroded are getting a second chance thanks to 3D printing. Accurate models of some of the most ancient places in the planet can now be redone and will help archaeologists put together […]

Restoring Industrial Components with Directed Energy Deposition Saves Time and Costs
Welding on a micron level to restore and repair parts at a fast pace and cost effective is the core of Directed Energy Deposition or DED, also called laser engineered net shaping or LENS (Optomec’s version of DED). It’s an additive manufacturing process in which focused thermal energy is used to fuse materials by melting […]

Interview with Dr. Vahid Serpooshan, Who Created a ‘Heart Attack Patch’ With the Help of 3D Printing
According to the World Health Organization, cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death globally. An estimated 17.9 million people died from cardiovascular disease in 2016, representing 31% of all global deaths. Treatments for all manner of cardiovascular impairments are therefore a high priority. A very prevalent ailment in that category is a heart attack […]

Interview with Nicole Hone who uses 4D Printing to Make Tangible Animation
A unique vision of underwater plants could pave the way for new film experiences. The film industry is going into new places with 3D printing, such as with the Black Panther’s Oscar-winning costume designs which included custom made 3D prints, and let’s not forget the groundbreaking technology used by New Zealand’s Weta Workshop when they ventured into J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord […]

Volvo’s Conservation Project: 3D Printed Tiles for a Living Seawall at Sydney Harbour
Oysters, seaweed, fish, algae and many more organisms have a new home at North Sydney Harbour. At one of the world’s largest Living Seawalls in Bradfield Park, an ocean conservation project brought together Swedish carmaker Volvo, Reef Design Lab, the Sydney Institute of Marine Science (SIMS) and the North Sydney Council to create an ecosystem […]
