University of Utah researchers have demonstrated a new method of 3D printing that avoids the leaky seams that come with the ...

University of Utah researchers have shown a holographic 3D printing method that forms tiny structures in about 20 seconds, but its biggest limitation keeps the breakthrough firmly in lab territory.

Researchers have developed a new 3D printing technique that allows the printing of whole objects while controlling the ...

Clean and complete geometry is important for successful 3D printing. A watertight mesh helps reduce common printing problems ...

Ordinarily, if you want to change the shape in which an object is 3D-printed, you have to alter the computer model that tells the printer what to do. A new and simpler technique, however, allows the ...

One prominent example of materials for 4D printing are shape memory polymers —smart materials that can return to their original shape from a deformed state in response to an external stimulus such as ...

If you're totally over how long it takes your 3D printer to finish a job, there's an easy solution for that – but it's only ...
