To the extent that we think of 3D printers as production machines, we tend to imagine huge banks of FDM machines slowly but surely cranking out parts. These printer farms are a sensible way to turn a ...

Koenigsegg uses a number of advanced manufacturing techniques to build its low-volume hypercars, like 3D printing. It farms out a ton of printed metal parts, but it also does liquid resin-based ...

Autostrade Co., Oita, Japan, has released a low-cost tabletop stereolithography (sla) system. The E-Darts unit measures only 430 by 500 by 515 mm, but is able to produce models 200 by 200 by 200 mm.

Have an old Android device collecting dust somewhere that you’d like to put to better use? [Electronoobs] shows us how to ...

Additive manufacturing specialist 3D Systems has developed a production-grade acrylate resin for use with its stereolithography (SLA) technology it reports is the first material to produce large-scale ...

If you're looking to get into the wonderful world of at-home 3D printing, you must start by making a significant choice: Printing from a plastic spool of material (Fused Deposition Modeling) or ...

October 16, 2005 When English physicist, futurist and science fiction master Arthur C. Clarke wrote “any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic” (in “Profiles of the ...

A second-generation noncrystalline, nanoparticle stereolithography (SL) resin lets VG Kunststofftechnik in Germany manufacture limited production runs of small, detailed parts. NanoForm 15120 ...

Stereolithography remains at the forefront of additive manufacturing, enabling the creation of intricate three-dimensional objects through the selective photopolymerisation of liquid resin. By ...

There are lots of reasons not to eat greasy deep-fried fast food, the least of which being the challenges involved with disposing of used cooking oil (clogged sewers). But researchers at the ...

The castings that resulted also had fewer flaws that needed weld repair, saving KomTek in Worcester, Mass., about $6.75 per casting in labor. The photopolymer is used to make a 2-lb investment casting ...
