D printing creates solid objects from the additive process of layering plastics, metal, wood, synthetic fibers, and more.

Rapid liquid 3D printing uses gel suspension for fast support-free printing. This method is fast, requires no post-processing, and allows for complex internal geometries. While promising, the ...

Researchers have come up with a 3D printing method using liquid metal that's claimed to produce structures at least 10 times faster than existing metal additive manufacturing processes, though it does ...

MIT spin-off Rapid Liquid Print has raised $7 million in funding for its novel liquid-based 3D printing technology. Boston-based Rapid Liquid Print was founded as an additive manufacturing startup in ...

Scientists at EPFL have reimagined 3D printing by turning simple hydrogels into tough metals and ceramics. Their process ...

The United States Navy's USS Essex has been equipped with a brand-new ElemX printer made by Xerox. The printer weighs 4,630 pounds (2,100 kilograms) and was lifted via crane onto the vessel while in ...

(Nanowerk News) The term 'liquid metal' refers to metals with melting points near or below room temperature. Mercury (Hg) and gallium (Ga) are the two most recognized elemental liquid metals (read ...

Imagine a future in which you could 3D-print an entire robot or stretchy, electronic medical device with the press of a button—no tedious hours spent assembling parts by hand. That possibility may be ...

It’s been a while since 3D printers became available and started allowing people to create 3D objects in the real world right from their own home. If you’re interested in getting a rundown of what 3D ...
