Los Angeles based eco-friendly filament leader 3D Printlife has launched a new 3D printing social support network called “Life Support” (www.3dprintlifesupport.com). 3D Printlife announced their newly developed platform this month at CES 2017 in Las Vegas.
“Embrace timelessness with a calendar that never runs out”. Avaialble on New York City based studio OTHR e-commerce website, the Perpetuum Calendar base is 3D printed by SLS in fabric-like plastic, with 14K gold-plated timepieces. Numbered edition.
There are online networks for 3D printing services and for 3D design and for selling 3D printed products. However one network that was certainly missing – and direly needed – until today was a functional network to ensure capillary 3D printing support to all 3D printer owners, whether they are consumers, prosumers or even small enterprises. That is why sustainable 3D printing filament leader 3D Printlife is launching its new Lifesupport network at CES 2017.
WhiteClouds, the world’s largest full color 3D printing cloud provider, today released a recap of major accomplishments for the company in 2016, its third year in operation and one marked by a 30% increase in production capabilities.
When HP first introduced Sprout in October 2014, the world had never really seen anything quite like it.
Conceived to celebrate the first Maison 203 store in Venice, it is part of Fritto Misto, the new collection of 3D printed design souvenirs inspired by playful imagination, far removed from monuments and tourist guides.
Stratasys launched ‘The New Ancient’ 3D printed art and design collection, which includes Vespers’ a new series of exploratory 3D printed death masks, designed by Neri Oxman and her team. The collections were unveiled at the public at the grand reopening of London’s Design Museum. Oxman combines design and computation to produce the masks which, in a landmark breakthrough, emulate the resolution and complexity that is usually only found in nature.
Dutch designer and technologist Pjotr (aka Rein van der Mast) is about to disrupt how fountain pens are made. Instead of relying on proven technology like turning, a couple of years ago he started 3D printing titanium fountain pens and now he also 3D prints its fully functional nib. This enables him to create complex design features and even mechanical assemblies in a single 3D print.
“If it’s color 3D printed anywhere in the world, there’s a very high likelihood it came out of our factory.” Braden Ellis, WhiteClouds CRO
