As the patents for fused-filament 3D printers began to expire back in 2013, hackers and makers across the globe started making 3D objects in their garages, workshops and hackerspaces. Entire indust… ...

An interesting research project out of MIT shows that it’s possible to embed machine-readable labels into 3D printed objects using nothing more than an FDM printer and filament that is transp… ...

Thanks to some wild, futuristic gels, 3D printing with soft materials is upon us. Soon your brain surgeon will be printing a soft three-dimensional copy of your brain on which to practice.

These generators use machine learning algorithms to create 3D models based on user input, making the process more efficient, accurate, and accessible to everyone.

But if you're into making your own 3D objects and are prepared for the amount of work involved, this is a very good machine to start with. The new Dual Extrusion 3D Printer can handle two spools ...

While you probably don’t want this latest project from the Hasso Plattner Institute to “beam you up” just yet, researchers have created a teleportation machine in that the object you are ...

A new 3D printing technique suspends the object being built in a gel to eliminate the need for structural supports that must be somehow etched away after the build process is complete.

3D printers have revolutionized the way we approach creating things. With 3D printing technology, you can turn digital designs into physical objects, making it an exciting tool for makers and ...

Additionally, the 3D Printed Rope Maker can be a valuable educational tool. It provides a hands-on way to learn about the principles of rope making, mechanical engineering, and 3D printing.

A new 3D printer uses light rays to turn a gooey liquid into a complex solid object in only few minutes. Most 3D printers build up 3D objects layer by layer. This creates a “stair-step” effect ...

That could change, though, thanks to new software that tells them how to knit custom 3D objects. Ordinarily, programming an industrial knitting machine to knit a certain type of item is quite a ...
