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.
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.

Officially unveiled at AMUG, the new Somos Taurus resin brings the combination of thermal and mechanical performance that until now has only been achieved using thermopolymer-based 3D printing techniques such as FDM and SLS. Somos Taurus is the latest addition to the high impact family of stereolithography (SLA) materials from Somos. Parts printed with this material are easy to clean and finish. The higher heat deflection temperature of this material increases the number of applications for the part producer and user.
At IDS, the world’s biggest international dental trade fair (taking place in Cologne, Germany from March 21st to the 25th), Prodways presents a preview of its next generation of 3D printers specifically dedicated to the dental industry, the ProMaker LD series range.
The new E-IDB material presented by EnvisionTEC at the IDS show, the largest dental show in the world, joins industry-leading dental library for production of dental and orthodontic models, castables, appliances and restorations. The company also announced expansion of the Vida 3D printer line for dental industry ewith high-speed cDLM model and a new partnership with 3Shape, whose 3Shape Trios scanner and Ortho Analyzer software work hand-in-hand with Vida for tray production.
Delivering on its strategy to transform 3D manufacturing workflows, 3D Systems today ann ...
