Seals use their whiskers to hunt. Not Navy Seals, although they may in some way also, but this article is about lowercase seals. Not Seal the musician either; as far…

UK-based 3D printing company Photocentric has spun out its space manufacturing activities into a separate business called CosmicMaker, after the successful demonstration of its 3D printing technology aboard a series…

If humans eventually establish a long-term presence on Mars, they will face a major manufacturing challenge almost immediately. Tools will break. Parts will wear out. Equipment will need repairs. But…

Photolithography, the semiconductor manufacturing process whereby lasers transfer patterns onto chemical layers coating a substrate, is one of the most amazing industrial processes humanity has ever created. It is also…

Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) has commercialized a number of large-format 3D printing technologies. Now, scientists are working on error mitigation in large parts. ORNL is using six thermal cameras…

We’re kicking things off with materials news in this weekend’s 3D Printing News Briefs. Then it’s on to a hybrid manufacturing system for a maritime exercise, an expansion of industrial…

For decades, manufacturing has mostly been controlled by countries with huge factories, lower labor costs, and industrial systems that took years, sometimes decades, to build. But Utrecht University human geographers…

In today’s 3D Printing News Briefs, America Makes announced the winners of its JAQS-SQ Project Call. Axtra3D is partnering with Keystone Industries to expand its dental material ecosystem, while BigRep…

Robotics is among the most intriguing long-term prospects for the additive manufacturing (AM) industry, something I recently wrote about in the context of BLT and China’s buildup of industrial robotics…

Woolly mammoths. Dire wolves. Dodos. The list of extinct animals tied to Colossal Biosciences is already impressive. Now the company is adding another unusual project to that growing lineup. Researchers…

Researchers at Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) say they may have found a softer, less invasive way to treat severe high blood pressure. In a new study published in the…

We’re starting with business in today’s 3D Printing News Briefs. ATLIX announced a strategic distribution partnership with Excelencia Tech Group, and Timeplast raised $5 million in an oversubscribed campaign, powered…

This can’t be stressed enough: the US needs to secure its supply chains for energy and power generation components. And, while the US needs to prioritize that objective across the…

We’re starting off today’s 3D Printing News Briefs with two new Project Calls from America Makes. We’ll move on to some more business, with Axtra3D expanding its presence in North…

Researchers at Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed a new way to 3D print materials that can move on their own, bending, twisting,…

Collaboration between emerging technology enterprises and research universities is one of the most consistently winning tactics for any nation building (or rebuilding) an industrial ecosystem. It’s an especially constructive approach…

In today’s 3D Printing News Briefs, we’ll start with a strategic collaboration to advance next-generation metal additive manufacturing (AM), before moving on to funding for surgical research. We’ll end with…

Researchers at the University of Oxford are getting closer to building brain-like tissue with 3D printing, improving how cells can be organized into structures that resemble the human brain. The…

In this weekend’s 3D Printing News Briefs, we’ll start off with a multi-laser metal powder bed fusion 3D printer and post-processing news. We’ll end with research into soft robotics and…
