Building 3D printed parts with artificial intelligence (AI) can optimize the design process by generating complex geometries that are lightweight yet strong. This can be difficult to achieve manually.
3D printing takes another step into automotive production with the collaboration of HP Japan, DMM.com, and Subaru. The additive manufactured car parts were produced using HP Japan’s Jet Fusion 3D ...
Showing off the 3D-printed hydraulics system. (Credit: Indeterminate Design, YouTube) Hydraulics are incredibly versatile, but due to the pressures at which they operate, they are also rather ...
Building hot rods remained basically the same for decades, with tried-and-true “old school” methods being used to create increasingly complex builds. Computers really changed the game, allowing things ...
Screws are useful fasteners for 3D prints, but the effectiveness of a screw (not to mention the ease or hassle of insertion) ...
Product developers and engineers make quick work of product designs when they access a manufacturability analysis tool from Protolabs. Protolab’s design for additive manufacturability (DfAM) analysis ...
Imagine holding a 3D-printed part in your hands, marveling at its intricate design, only to have it snap under pressure due to weak layer adhesion. This is the frustrating reality of anisotropic ...
3D printers have become versatile, affordable, and powerful enough to print all sorts of things — including car parts. The process has also developed beyond DIY and prototyping (there are even 3D ...
Military demands for 3D printing are sharply increasing across all domains, with potential to change not only logistics but ...
Buying a 3D printer opens you up to a whole new world of crafting and design, and a few cheap upgrades will help you go even further with it.
Most people think of 3D printing as a niche hobby, but the benefits it can have in everyday home life make it more practical ...
The Creality SPARKX i7 is a solid multi-colour 3D printer that offers some great QoL features, an easy-to-use interface, and ...
