News and Insights of 3D Printing and Manufacturing
Check out this video of a recent test on the Printrbelt, Printrbot’s newest infinity 3D printer. The 20” long system 3D printed a 6-foot long sword. The belt carries the print along until it peels off of the end of the bed. With a little bit of support under it, this print could go on literally forever.
SmarTech Publishing, the leading industry analyst firm in the 3DP/ additive manufacturing market has issued a new report titled, “Additive Manufacturing for the Drone/UAV Industry”. In this report the firm projects that the yearly value of UAV additive manufacturing for parts will reach $1.9 billion, driving over $400 million in yearly sales of AM equipment, software, materials and services.
Desktop Metal, the Massachussetts based company committed to making accessible metal 3D printing a reality for manufacturers and engineers, completed a $115 million Series D investment round to further accelerate the company’s rapid business growth and adoption of its end-to-end metal 3D printing systems. Since its inception in October 2015, Desktop Metal has raised a total of $212 million in financing, with the Series D marking the largest individual private round for a metal additive manufacturing company.
When disaster strikes, the countdown is on to get necessary supplies to those who need them most. But conditions often make it nearly impossible to deliver aid in a timely manner. That’s one reason drones are a boon for disaster response worldwide. Now, two young makers from Japan hope to advance relief efforts with their own generatively designed and 3D printed life-saving drone: X VEIN,
NASA has awarded a total of $201,023 to teams of citizen inventors that have reached the latest milestone of NASA’s 3D Printed Habitat Challenge, completing the Phase 2: Level 2 Beam Member competition. The teams are working to find ways to 3D print habitation structures using recyclables and simulated Martian soil, a technology goal that could support deep space exploration and advance construction capabilities on Earth.
