ORNL Turns to Neutrons to Investigate Performance of Engine Cylinder Head Made from 3D Printed Mold and New Aluminum Alloy
A research team from Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) worked with several industry partners to use a 3D printed sand mold and neutrons to investigate how a new high-performance aluminum…
In a Non-Exclusive Licensing Agreement, Momentum Technologies Will Commercialize ORNL’s 3D Printed Magnet Technology
In October of 2016, researchers from TU Wien announced that they had used 3D printing to create strong permanent magnets. About a month later, Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), which…
ORNL Researchers 3D Print Permanent Magnets for Clean Energy Applications, Saving Time, Cost and Material
At this point, it’s no longer a surprise to hear that 3D printing something results in better performance, strength, etc. compared to traditionally manufactured equivalents. The fact that it’s no…
Researchers on Schedule to 3D Print First Induction Motor by The End of 2015
Since we can already 3D print pasta, chocolate, watches, and prosthetics, the next frontier for the technology is the ability to print a 30 kW induction motor. The inside of…
