News and Insights of 3D Printing and Manufacturing
Is bricklaying a form of additive manufacturing? Not really, however if we introduce a digital and robotic element to it, it may just be considered a type of 3D printing. That’s what Australian company Fast Robotics refers to when defining its impressive Hadrian X robotic bricklaying technology. Looking at the video (below) that shows how the system works, we tend to agree.
EnvisionTEC, a global leader in 3D printers for the in-ear device and monitor market, and 3Shape, a global leader in 3D scanning and CAD/CAM software, today launch a new turnkey system for scanning, modeling and printing in-ear devices. The system enables fast, mass customized production of in-ear devices for hearing care.
The sandals that the 3D printed footwear pioneers at Wiiv just launched on Kickstarter aren’t just an innovation in footwear. It’s a revolution in an industry plagued by mass-produced products, rigid offshore supply chains, and the inability to capitalize on the full potential of 3D printing. Instead, Wiiv is presenting one-off custom products at scale and manufactured locally.

The Johnson & Johnson’s 3D Printing Center of Excellence is launching new customized surgical tools, which will be available to surgeons in hospitals across the country this week. Headed by Sam Onukuri, a mechanical engineer with a specialty in metallurgy, the J&J Center is working to change the landscape of healthcare through 3D printing innovations.
The latest OTHR item proving yet again that 3D printing can be used to make limited series of high end design products is Cloth, a streamlined, multi-use form. Acts as oil jug, creamer or soy sauce dispenser. It is a numbered edition, in 3D printed porcelain, available with or without lid for $285.
PostProcess Technologies, the only provider of automated and intelligent post-processing solutions for 3D printed parts, announced the introduction of the second generation DECI Rectangular, the company’s largest product in the Surface Finish (SF) series. PostProcess continues to pioneer automated post-printing solutions that eliminate the ‘bottleneck’ associated with manual post-printing of additive parts. This is fundamental to achieving scale and unlocking the promise of 3D printing to drive the future of the manufacturing industry.
Stanley Black & Decker, one of the world’s most recognizable names in jobsite tools, has partnered with Sindoh to launch the new STANLEY Model 1 3D Printer. This new licensed agreement is also STANLEY’s first 3D printer, which has been designed to deliver a convenient desktop experience to beginners and experienced users who are interested in prototyping designs, developing concepts, and bringing ideas in a 3D form to life.
