News and Insights of 3D Printing and Manufacturing
Anycubic, a leading 3D printer manufacturer, is launching the new Anycubic Kobra series and Anycubic Photon M3 series of 3D printers, featuring leading-edge Anycubic LeviQ auto bed leveling technology and Anycubic LighTurbo matrix light source. These new features will ensure a radically improved user-friendly experience and superb print details.
3D Coffee is a project financed by the European Union funds as part of the First Open Call of the Digital Innovation Hub World, which sees the innovative startup Additive Appliances and the Kilometro Rosso innovation center as protagonists, with the additive technologies lab Lisa Tech. To prepare quality coffee, pressure and temperature control are essential. The “thermo-mechanical” or traditional machines, such as the Moka, the siphon, or the French press, do not directly control these variables and have well-known process limits; however, they are eco-friendly and have a greatly reduced environmental impact, more than 30%, compared to electric machines.
US 3D printer manufacturer 3D Systems has entered into a partnership with artificial intelligence (AI) medical firm Enhatch to make the design and delivery of patient-specific medical devices more efficient.
Colgate, a world leader in oral healthcare, and Nourished, a personalized nourishment company, have teamed up to create Nutristacks – novel, 3D printed ‘chewies’ for on the go oral hygiene. The project adds to the growing suite of personalized 3D printed consumables within the industry.
Surgeons at Israel’s Shaare Zedek Medical Center (SZMC) have successfully transplanted the world’s thinnest artificial cornea into the eye of a patient, according to a Jerusalem Post report.
Evonik is expanding its portfolio of 3D printable biomaterials for medical technology: The specialty chemicals company has developed VESTAKEEP iC4800 3DF, a new osteoconductive PEEK filament, for 3D printed implants, that improves fusion between bone and implants. The high-performance polymer can be processed in common extrusion-based 3D printing technologies such as fused filament fabrication (FFF).
The growing demand for bigger and faster SLS 3D printers – Lisa X and Nils 480 challenged Sinterit to launch a new version of the popular PHS. With the tremendous increase in powder volume that could be printed at once, the postprocessing and powder handling with new, faster PHS.

Southeast Asia-based Siam Cement Group (SCG), one of the largest cement companies in the world, is now a distributor of COBOD 3D construction printers in Thailand and beyond. SCG previously used other printers to experiment with concrete 3D printing and produce various prototypes but the company has now turned to COBOD as means to increase large-scale production capabilities.
No one likes to do these stories but they have to be reported: 3D printed manufacturer Rize 3D, a company that was offering a unique mix of extrusion and piezo-jetting for full-color 3D printing capabilities, has shut down. This actually happened a few months ago but, as we said earlier, no one likes to do these stories. The company’s special media accounts have been silent for a few months now and a new company, Palitra, has been established to offer support for existing Rize 3D customers.
