“TPL” is a well-understood technology for 3D printing extremely small structures. It typically involves focusing a laser at a tiny point within a resin vat, solidifying a very small region. By moving ...

We don’t think twice about using our hands throughout the day for tasks that still thwart sophisticated robots—pouring coffee without spilling when half-awake, folding laundry without ripping delicate ...

Researchers have developed a new two-photon polymerization technique that uses two lasers to 3D print complex high-resolution structures. The advance could make this 3D printing process less expensive ...

Charles R. Goulding and Preeti Sulibhavi connect the dots between a new mass-produced robotic hand, decades of end-effector ...

SEATTLE — Surgeons utilizing 3D printing technology to train and practice for certain complex surgeries are taking their talents and knowledge of the process, abroad. 3D printing is used to replicate ...

3D printing single objects out of different materials can be difficult, if those materials cure at different rates. The new Inkbit system addresses that problem, and has been used to print a complex ...

WASHINGTON – Repurposing, reimagining and recycling are at the core of innovation for re:3D, a small business that is partnering with the U.S. Army to provide novel 3D printing capabilities with an ...

A finished 3D print, especially plastic deposition types, often have imperfections in them from the process of laying down each layer of material and from the printer itself. For small batches or ...

What components of water infrastructure are being 3D printed? Why is the technology beneficial? And how are companies ...
