Nick Callegari never planned on building houses. But after designing spacecraft parts at SpaceX, he decided to aim for something a little closer to home. The result is Verustruct, a...

Auburn-based XO Armor Joins Montgomery TechLab’s Defense Accelerator ProgramJune 5

Conflux Technology, an Australian company specializing in heat transfer solutions and additive manufacturing, has announced a collaboration with Italian hypercar manufacturer Pagani to address thermal management challenges in the Pagani Utopia’s transmission. The Utopia, Pagani’s latest hypercar, uses a 6-liter twin-turbo V12 engine designed by Mercedes-AMG. Its powertrain integrates a custom seven-speed transmission developed by […]

Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a 3D printed, self-powered mechanoluminescent (ML) photonic skin designed for communication and safety monitoring in underwater environments. The stretchable device emits light in response to mechanical deformation, requires no external power source, and remains functional under conditions such as high salinity and extreme temperatures. The […]

Ivan Miranda and Jón Schone from Proper Printing have come up with an inventive way to turn an old treadmill into a working 3D printer, tackling one of the biggest limitations in 3D printing: bed size. Instead of relying on a static print surface, they use the treadmill’s moving belt to serve as a continuous […]

Lately, Comau, the Italy-based manufacturer of robotic systems owned by One Equity Partners and automaker Stellantis, has formed a growing number of partnerships with companies in the additive manufacturing (AM)...

3D Printing Breakthrough Reduces Waste While Enabling Complex DesignsJune 4

GKN Aerospace has implemented Interspectral’s AM Explorer software at its Engine Systems Centre of Excellence in Trollhättan, Sweden.  By integrating the process monitoring and quality assurance platform into its 3D printing operations, the aerospace group aims to boost efficiency and cut material waste. This, in turn, will unlock more sustainable aero-engine production while ensuring reliable […]

Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have created a 3D printed pen that detects subtle tremors in handwriting, offering a potential tool for diagnosing Parkinson’s disease.  Co-authored by Professor Jun Chen, the device relies on magnetic particles and electrical signals to record small movements linked to the neurodegenerative disorder. The professor explained […]

Texas A&M University, a Public Research Institution, has secured $1.6 million in funding from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to develop a new system that accelerates the assessment of quality and durability in 3D printed parts. As part of DARPA’s SURGE program, grantees are challenged to reduce evaluation times from 18 months to […]

Irish medical device manufacturer Croom Medical has revealed TALOS, a new laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) platform for 3D printing tantalum (Ta). The company’s press release hails TALOS as a breakthrough for medical implants and industrial applications.  Tantalum’s unique properties, including corrosion resistance and biocompatibility, mean it is well-suited for use in healthcare and engineering […]

A multidisciplinary team from the University of Virginia (UVA) has been selected to present their project, “Ecologically Active Structure,” at the 19th International Architecture Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia. The team comprises Ehsan Baharlou (Department of Architecture), David Carr (Department of Environmental Sciences), and Ji Ma (Department of Materials Science and Engineering). Their work […]

3DSage, a 3D animator and electronics hobbyist who designs functional devices inspired by pop culture, has created a working replica of the Metal Gear Solid codec. This fan-made device translates the game’s iconic communication tool into a fully operational electronic gadget, combining microcontrollers, 3D printing, and retro-inspired design. In the 1998 PlayStation title Metal Gear […]

Swiss biotech company TissueLabs has launched its most advanced bioprinter yet, the TissuePro. Built for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, the new machine features precise multi-material printing, more automation, and...

No amount of attention that the additive manufacturing (AM) industry devoted to the challenge of workforce development could be considered “too much” these days. Nowhere is this truer, perhaps, than...
