News and Insights of 3D Printing and Manufacturing
3DCeram, a French company specializing in 3D ceramic processes and materials, formed a partnership with 3D Matters (3DM) which will give the company a foothold in the UK market, pooling both companies’ additive manufacturing expertise in 3D printed ceramics.
United Technologies Research Center (UTRC), the global innovation arm of United Technologies Corp, today unveiled its new and expanded $60 million state-of-the-art “innovation hub” on its East Hartford campus.
With the recent launches of the Telkom 3S, SGDC and KOREASAT-7 satellites, plus satellites in the Iridium Next constellation, Thales Aleni ...
NVIDIA GVDB Voxels is ideally suited for 3D Printing design, prototyping and embedded applications where both performance and memory footprint are critical. Voxels enable a next-generation approach to the 3D Printing workflow as they represent complex, connected microstructures and heterogeneous materials more easily than polygons. Supporting very high-resolution volumes with massive parallelism on GPUs, the sparse data structure of NVIDIA GVDB Voxels allows for geometric operations, simulation and rendering of complex models with fine detail. GVDB Voxels is ideally suited as core representation for 3D Printing Design applications, Generative Design, Process Engineering, Materials Simulation or print PreVisualization.
EnvisionTEC, a leading global manufacturer of desktop and full-production 3D printers and materials, announced a cost-saving, disposable material tray for its premium desktop 3D printers at JCK Las Vegas, the jewelry industry’s premier trade show.
Computer graphics hardware and software giant NVIDIA revealed its intention to begin targeting real GVDB voxel-level 3D printing through both dedicated software and hardware. This strategy is meant to target the current limitations in 3D printing objects that are made of several different materials and parts. Identified challenges in 3D printing include multiple colors, differing densities and the use of a mix of materials.
As originally reported by the West Australian online, the Perth season of Cirque du Soleil’s Kooza production features costumes made using a 3D printer. This marks the very first time the Cirque has used the technology in its wardrobe department but results have been so encouraging that all 20 Cirque du Soleil shows may soon consider implementing one or more.

The new TU Darmstadt racecar for the current Formula Student competition contains no fewer than five ultralight 3D printed components from Heraeus. A steering shaft made from a special aluminum alloy (AlSi10Mg) is nearly 50% lighter than the model that preceded it. The new steering shaft, designed and printed by Heraeus precisely to the specifications of the TU Darmstadt racing team, now weighs barely 300 grams while maintaining the same mechanical strength and stability.
