UPenn engineers reimagine concrete 3D printing with algae Construction 3D Printing
According to the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn), a groundbreaking concrete innovation could change the way we build—and how we fight climate change. Researchers there have combined 3D printing with fossilized microscopic algae to create a new type of concrete that captures significantly more carbon dioxide while using less cement.

Scuderia AlphaTauri’s secret to Monza F1 victory? You guessed it: 3D printing Additive Manufacturing
A lot of work went into this incredible success for Scuderia AlphaTauri but 3D printing with DSM Somos materials also played a part. Just last month the F1 team reported that it started using Somos PerFORM Reflect AM material to cut production time up to 30 percent, enhancing testing processes and increasing the speed and frequency of aerodynamic improvements. The results are now there for everyone to see after Sunday’s incredible victory by Pierre Gasly. And someone should be taking notes.

Official Hyperloop Pod Competition Features Some Amazing Prototypes 3D Printing Events
Over the last week, 27 teams have been on site at SpaceX in preparation for this weekend’s Hyperloop Pod Competition just outside SpaceX headquarters in Hawthorne, CA. The purpose of the competition is to help accelerate the development of a functional Hyperloop prototype and encourage student innovation by challenging university students to design and build the best Hyperloop pod. This competition is the first of its kind anywhere in the world. Teams have put their pods through a litany of tests over the last week in hopes of making it into the Hyperloop test track itself. The competition timeline is driven by a team’s ability to complete certain milestones versus a set schedule, so for the purposes of competition coverage. SpaceX will livestream the main events as they happen.
Wacker Chemie to Shut Down ACEO Silicone 3D Printing Service
ACEO (aka ACEO3D), the silicone 3D printing service based of German silicone giant Wacker Chemie, is shutting down at the end of 2021. The company took orders until December 10th and from now on will only work on projects on a case-by-case basis. While introducing a unique technology with unparalleled silicone 3D printing capabilities, unfortunately, ACEO3D also provided a perfect case to show what not to do when marketing such an innovative and potentially revolutionary product.
