Discover the 3D printing filament that's causing havoc on nozzles and ruining print quality, despite its glowing allure.

Since 3D printing went mainstream, there's been much buzz about a future filled with 3D printed buildings, cars, and airplanes. That could start to change with Autodesk’s Project Escher, a software ...

While additive manufacturing, more commonly known as 3D printing, has been a futuristic mainstay of manufacturing for years, it has struggled to scale both speed and size of its production due to ...

A new 3D printer uses light to transform gooey liquids into complex solid objects in only a matter of minutes. The printer can create objects that are smoother, more flexible and more complex than ...

3D printing technology is changing the way we manufacture everything from toys and clothes to human tissue. The process of printing a three-dimensional object is known as additive manufacturing. A ...

How do you create complex 3D-printed objects in seconds, instead of hours or days? A team of scientists and engineers led by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) has developed a process that ...

Already own a 3D printer? Discover how a 3D pen serves as a vital post-processing tool for makers, or as a low-cost entry ...

(Nanowerk News) With 3D inkjet printing systems, engineers can fabricate hybrid structures that have soft and rigid components, like robotic grippers that are strong enough to grasp heavy objects but ...

Like fingerprints, no 3D printer is exactly the same. That's the takeaway from a new study that describes what's believed to be the first accurate method for tracing a 3D-printed object to the machine ...

A new 3D printer capable of manufacturing objects with up to ten materials at once has been unveiled. MIT's (apparently very busy) Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) ...

Jackson Ryan was CNET's science editor, and a multiple award-winning one at that. Earlier, he'd been a scientist, but he realized he wasn't very happy sitting at a lab bench all day. Science writing, ...
