Daring AM: The Future of Pathogen Detection is 3D Printed
Pathogen detection is essential in many industries, from healthcare to food safety. The faster harmful bacteria or other microorganisms can be detected, the better we can protect people from diseases…
3D Printing News Unpeeled: Protective Cells & Thermal Protection Systems
University of Colorado Boulder researchers Rob Maccurdy and Charles Wade are working on lattice and cell structures that they hope to develop into bumpers, packaging, helmets and the like. Research…
Bioprinted Urethras to Advance Bespoke Medical Solutions
Swedish researchers have created tissue-engineered urethras using 3D bioprinting. Developed at Chalmers University of Technology, the urethral structures are printed with a bioink that integrates human cells with a supportive…
Anti-Virus 3D Printing Material Developed for Resin-Based AM
While the entire world isn’t locked down anymore, COVID-19 is definitely still here, and still causing plenty of problems. Cases in my area are, thankfully, going down, but (most of)…
Researchers Turn to 3D Printing and a Unique Flying Fish to Improve the Design of Tandem Wing Airplanes
Biomimicry, according to the Biomimicry Institute, is the search for sustainable solutions to human problems by mimicking solutions that are already found in nature. This practice has been coupled with…
Using 3D Printing, Lithography & Soft Robotics: New Prosthetic Hands Made for $50 at Cornell
What’s so incredible about the soft robotic hand created by a team at Cornell? It can grip, sort, and sense what it is touching. But what’s truly astounding is the…
Researchers 3D Print Miniscule On-Chip Microbatteries with Incredible Potential
We are living in an incredibly shrinking world — a world in which we see electronics decrease in size at an almost unbelievable rate. Think about the size of computer memory, music…
New High Speed Sintering 3D Printers May Hold The Key to Creating ‘Perfect’ Products
“Nothing is how it should be.” While this is a very bold statement, when you stop and think about it, it may actually hold some truth, at least when you…
