EOS Introduces EOSTATE Optical Tomography Monitoring with MTU and Liebherr 3D Printing Processes

EOS, one of the leading technology providers for industrial 3D printing of metals and polymers, is expanding its EOSTATE monitoring suite to include an additional tool. EOSTATE Exposure OT, the first commercial system for optical tomography worldwide, now provides real-time, camera-based monitoring of the additive, metal-based build process, based on the EOS M 290 system. The solution fully maps each part throughout the build process, layer by layer, regardless of its geometry and size.

Scientists Experiment with Nano 3D Printing to Help Patients Heal from Heart Attacks 3D Printing Processes

In a major 3D printing story that attracted the attention of Newsweek (a magazine also known for writing articles claiming that 3D printing is over), a nano 3D printing technology generally known as Two-Photon Photopolymerization (2PP) was used by Brenda Ogle, an associate professor of biomedical engineering at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities, to create a patch that doctors could apply to help a patient heal in case of myocardial infarction (i.e. heart attack).

Pastor Uses Shapr3D to Make Models for His Community AM Software

Trent is a pastor from the US, with an education in theology and computer science. A rare combination, but a trend we have been seeing more frequently among Shapr3D users. Unrelated, previously unheard industries/fields are starting to realize the power of 3D modeling/3D printing, and what it can bring to their lives, their micro communities. Trent is creating 3D printed pieces for his community and family. We talked with him about his beginnings, and the printing projects he is currently working on.
