News and Insights of 3D Printing and Manufacturing
These small-scale structures have been 3D printed out of simulated Mars regolith, to investigate the feasibility of one day using local materials for building on the Red Planet and other planets.
Swedish researchers at Sahlgrenska Academy and Chalmers University of Technology have successfully induced human cartilage cells to live and grow in an animal model, using 3D bioprinting. The results will move development closer to a potential future in which it will be possible to help patients by giving them new body parts through 3D bioprinting. The results were recently presented in the journal Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Global Open.

At the invitation of Chinese President Xi Jinping, the king of Saudi Arabia, Salman Ben Abdul Aziz Al-Shahat, paid a state visit to China from March 15 to March 18. On March 16, King Salman witnessed the signing of a memorandum of cooperation for extensive 3D printing construction operations between the Saudi Almobty Construction Group and house 3D printing pioneer Winsun (Ying Chuang).
During the winter semester, SUNY Stony Brook University made a lot of changes to its Innovation Lab facilities! One of these is the new 3D printing self service station in the Innovation Lab, a new digital media center, which was rebranded as iCREATE. The 3D printing self service station is for students to print objects without […]

A team at Northwestern University developed a comprehensive approach for creating robust, elastic, designer Lunar and Martian regolith simulant (LRS and MRS, respectively) architectures using ambient condition, extrusion-based 3D printing of regolith simulant inks. The LRS and MRS powders were characterized by distinct, highly inhomogeneous morphologies and sizes, where LRS powder particles are highly irregular and jagged and MRS powder particles are rough, but primarily rounded. The inks are synthesized via simple mixing of evaporant, surfactant, and plasticizer solvents, polylactic-co-glycolic acid (30% by solids volume), and regolith simulant powders (70% by solids volume). The Study was published in Nature Journal.
Stratasys Ltd, the leading 3D printing and additive manufacturing solutions company, today unveiled the new Stratasys J700 Dental 3D Printing solution – the fastest PolyJet-based 3D printer for production of clear aligner molds. Driving scalable, on-demand production, the solution addresses increased demand for fast production of 3D printed aligners as the industry incorporates new digital dentistry workflows.
