3D Printing Webinar and Event Roundup: August 25, 2024
3D printing webinars and events are picking up this week! In today’s roundup, Stratasys continues its advanced training and U.S. tour, and HP will hold the next session of its…
Carbon Doubles Down on Textures for 3D Printing with New Software Technique
For the past few years, I’ve been highly optimistic about the potential of textures in additive manufacturing (AM). I believe that by enhancing function and perceived value, textures could hasten…
LatticeRobot Launches a Home for Lattices, Metamaterials, and Textures
At the CDFAM computational design (+DfAM) symposium this week, a startup dedicated to lattice software, LatticeRobot, was launched. LatticeRobot is also the first Gradient Control Labs, an incubator that facilitates…
A Warning: Proprietary Textures and Geometry for 3D Printing
3D printing is a number of technologies that collectively build objects layer by layer. Famously this gives us more design freedom and lets us make more varied and unique shapes…
3D Printing Webinar and Event Roundup: September 19, 2021
We’ve got another busy week of webinars and events to tell you about! Topics in this week’s roundup run the gamut from 3D digital textures and FDM 3D printing potential…
Functional Texture Libraries Could Make All 3D Printed Parts Better
In the molded, mass-manufactured, and CNC’d world, everything was smooth. Meanwhile, our 3D printed world had a surface roughness problem that was proving difficult to solve. Finishing took longer than…
