UPenn Researchers Using Jammed Microgels as 3D Bioprinting Inks
A trio of researchers from the University of Pennsylvania have published a paper, titled “Jammed Microgel Inks for 3D Printing Applications,” on their use of jammed microgels as inks for bioprinting,…
Reducing High Porosity and Improving Sealing Properties in Extrusion-Based 3D Printing
While there’s been a lot of ongoing research into what causes structural defects (porosity) and other flaws in metal 3D printed parts, let’s not forget that 3D printed objects made with…
New Zealand Researchers Develop and Characterize Micro Pellet Extruder and 3D Printing System
Filament-based extrusion is a very common practice in the 3D printing community, but it’s not necessary for extrusion to only work with filament, at least as far as FFF 3D…
Penn State Researchers Use 3D Printing Technology to Improve Strength and Cell Adhesion of PDMS
Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), also known as silicone rubber, has several useful properties, and there has been a lot of interest lately in 3D printing the material. However, it’s a difficult process,…
POSTECH Research Team Publishes Paper on Single-Step Process for 3D Bioprinting Synthetic Skin
I remember teachers asking the question, “What is the largest human organ?” in class many years ago, and most kids shouted out incorrect guesses, like the stomach or the brain….
3devo at formnext: Desktop Materials Extrusion Opens Up the 3D Printing Market
While 3D printing at the desktop may not have yet reached the sales that had been projected some years ago during the early maker craze, desktop 3D printing activity has…
ROBO 3D Unveils Three New 3D Printers, Full Color Extrusion & More at CES 2015
International CES is an event in which there is a tendancy by most of the major electronics companies to try and “one-up” one another for the attention of the media,…
