What are the challenges and applications for this emergent technology in additive manufacturing? Ramsey Stevens, CEO of nano3Dprint, offers his take on the topic. Multi-material 3D printing enables ...

Three-dimensional printing was born in the 1980s, and, since then, the additive approach to manufacturing that it enables has gradually unseated traditional, subtractive concepts of industrial ...

Why multi-material matters: Combining materials allows for functional enhancements, cleaner supports, and efficient production, giving prints both utility and visual appeal. 3MF file advantages: 3MF ...

Bambu Lab’s AMS systems make multi-color and multi-material printing possible without constant filament swaps, but success depends on setup and technique. Proper drying, material compatibility checks, ...

Multi-material 3D printing combines the functional properties of different materials (e.g., mechanical, electrical, color) within a single object that is fabricated without manual assembly. However, ...

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 ...

While it’s the ideal choice for mass production, injection molding is simply no good for prototyping. The molds are expensive and time-consuming make, so unless you’ve got the funding to burn tens of ...

AMES, Iowa – The U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) is looking for materials that “revolutionize and engineer our future.” Researchers at Iowa State University and the University of California, ...

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printers have evolved from a time sink gimmick to sophisticated additive manufacturing equipment that sits on a user's desk. There's no longer a need for multiple ...
