Slice, slice, baby.

When working with an FDM 3D printer your first prints are likely trinkets where strength is less relevant than surface quality. Later on when attempting more structural prints, the settings become ...

As impressive as the 3D printing process is, it can also be a bit time consuming. You are creating something out of nothing after all, and your printer needs to dispense and layer every square inch of ...

IBM is exploring a way to turn empty 3D printed cavities into engineered features instead of unused air.

Desiccant is common in 3D printing because the drier plastic filament is, the better it prints. Beads of silica gel are great for controlling humidity, but finding a porous container for them that is ...

Engineers at the University of Maine have developed a groundbreaking method to accurately predict the strength of lightweight 3D-printed objects. This research, conducted at the university's Advanced ...
