News and Insights of 3D Printing and Manufacturing
Digital Metal is expanding its operations, increasing the Höganäs plant production area by 50 percent, to support serial manufacturing of its DM P2500 and new components. Since launching in September 2017, the increased demand has also resulted in the need to hire more engineers, technicians and sales employees, as well as investment in new materials […]
3D LifePrints UK Ltd, one of the UK’s leading medical 3D printing companies, has closed a Series A investment round of £500,000 with Fenwall Investments Ltd. This investment follows on from previous Seed Funding investment in 2016 and will enable accelerated expansion for this award-winning innovative company.
Leading bioprinter manufacturer regenHU appointed Wako Automation as their official systems integrator for the USA. Recent advances in 3D-Bioprinting provide a valuable tool in the fabrication of biomimetic tissue constructs which can be applied at various stages of drug discovery research and development. “The collaboration with regenHU will enable customers at the forefront of […]
Thor3D is proud to announce an exclusive partnership agreement with ControlNice Technology Co, Ltd, a large reseller and manufacturer of 3D technology in China. Based out of Tianjin, ControlNice, will now serve as the master distribution partner for all Thor3D-related products in China.
In segments such as regenerative medicine, neuroscience and drug discovery, 3D printing finds practical uses from cartilage repair, hearing aids to printable pills. In the challenge of fabricating biocompatible 3D microdevices, Nanoscribe’s 3D microprinting represents a versatile approach with the interplay of a high-resolution 3D printer and proprietary photo resin materials. The following scientific work in cell regeneration and nerve interfacing highlights the practicality of 3D-printed micro-objects harmless to living systems.
The last few years have seen an explosion of new materials for 3D printing applications. Each material has its own strengths and weaknesses, so choosing the right one can be a daunting task. After more than a year of research and development, Simplify3D has published an extensive 3D Printing Materials Guide that explores all of the popular filaments in use today, providing expert tips to improve your results with each material. In addition to in-depth articles on more than a dozen different filament types, the Guide also includes a detailed Properties Table for comparing the physical and mechanical properties of one material against another.
Living in increasingly contaminated cities, people are using protective masks more and more frequently. While there are many styles for adults, there are far fewer designed especially for children, for whom pollution is definitely more harmful. At least on a massive scale.
BCN3D Technologies appointed Xavier M. Faneca as their new CEO. Xavi M. Faneca will assume responsibilities on February 1st and will succeed Roger Uceda, who will lead the 3D printing technological development and research at the CIM Technological Center, the innovation institute where BCN3D was born.
With its Veyron and Chiron super sports cars, Bugatti has established a position as a pioneer ...
Researchers at the University of Glasgow developed a new method for drug manufacturing which uses 3D printers to create pharmaceuticals on demand. The study on 3D printed drugs, published in a new paper published today in the journal Science, could lead to a ‘Spotify for chemistry’. This would mark a new approach to the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals using a digital code, one that many are looking at as a potential breakthrough.
