3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, has emerged as a groundbreaking technology that is transforming the way we design, manufacture, and interact with physical objects. From creating ...

It is a fact of life that 3D printed parts from an FDM (fused deposition modeling) printer have weaknesses where the layers join. Some of this is due to voids and imperfect layer bonding, but you can ...

[Slant 3D] knows a lot about optimizing 3D prints so that they can be cranked out reliably with minimal need for post-processing, and in this short video he uses a cube as a simple example of how a ...

3D printing has changed the world since its inception, influencing everything from simple plastic prototypes to sophisticated, life-saving medical implants. It began in the 1980s as a way to fuel a ...

Thanks to an innovative extension to 3D printing, researchers can create high-performance, low-weight “unbuildable” RF structures that combine dielectrics and patterned conductors. The benefits and ...

James has been writing about technology for years but has loved it since the early 90s. While his main areas of expertise are maker tools -- 3D printers, vinyl cutters, paper printers, and laser ...
