Researchers at MIT and the Polytechnic University of Milan have developed a low-cost, AI-driven monitoring platform for 3D bioprinting that improves tissue reproducibility, reduces material waste, and lays the foundation for intelligent, automated fabrication of complex biological structures. “A major drawback of current 3D bioprinting approaches is that they do not integrate process control methods […]
Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have combined binder jet additive manufacturing (BJAM) with advanced post-processing to produce leak-tight ceramic components, addressing a longstanding challenge in ceramic 3D printing. ORNL reports that this is the first known leak-tight joint created using AM, paving the way for scalable BJAM assemblies. […]
The BFI National Archive, a film and television archive managed by the British Film Institute, uses the Formlabs Form 3L, a large-format 3D printer acquired in 2022, to reproduce obsolete equipment parts and develop prototype components, including film reels, cores, spacers, and guides. The process begins with the EinScan Pro HD 3D scanner, which captures […]
U.S.-based medical device company Airway Management has received FDA clearance for the Nylon flexTAP, described as the world’s first digitally printed single-point midline oral appliance for sleep apnea. The device, manufactured in the U.S., combines the company’s patented Vertex Technology with a design intended for patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). By […]
Architecture and design firm Zaha Hadid Architects (ZHA) collaborated with the Hong Kong Science & Technology Parks Corporation (HKSTP) and D-Shape to present projects at the World Design Congress (WDC) 2025 that emphasize 3D printing as a tool for environmental and architectural innovation. The firm showcased applications of 3D printing in marine ecosystem restoration, urban […]
