News and Insights of 3D Printing and Manufacturing
For those in the additive manufacturing industry, it is a well known fact that AM requires different design principles than subtractive manufacturing techniques. Today, many resources in the industry (as well as at a research level) are dedicated to advancing Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM), which leverages the design freedom of AM to create parts with new functions and innovative geometries.

Hydrophilic-hydrophobic composite structures exist widely in nature, such as cell membranes, mammali ...
Trideo, an Argentina-based 3D printer manufacturer, is approaching the release of its latest product, the Dual T 3D printer series. The industrial 3D printer series, developed and constructed entirely in Argentina, is now available for pre-order with a rebate of up to 20%.
The timeline of smartphone-powered 3D printers has been questionable. Famously, the low-cost ONO 3D printer—which raised $2 million through Kickstarter in 2016—has so far failed to deliver. Does that mean that smartphone 3D printing is over before it even began? Maybe not.
Prellis Biologics, Inc. is hoping to make the bioprinting process more accessible in order to accelerate research in the field of human tissue engineering. As part of this effort, the company has developed TissueWorkshop, an easy-to-use web-based interface designed for biologists and tissue engineers. The program, which can reportedly be learned in minutes, enables users to generate libraries of vascular-inspired 3D scaffolds based on user input.

In June 2019, global sciences company Royal DSM launched the I AM Tomorrow Challenge, a collaborative effort aimed at addressing and filling gaps in the AM value chain. At the time, DSM and its partners Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence and Ultimaker invited startups from around the world to apply for an accelerator program. Six startups, selected from a pool of 74, have recently teamed up to co-develop a digital additive manufacturing workflow.
Wematter, a Swedish startup specializing in SLS 3D printing, has launched two new products for the additive market: a new SLS 3D printer, Gravity 2020, and the BlasThing Cabinet for safely and cost-efficiently cleaning SLS parts.
DMG MORI, a German machine manufacturing company, has extended its range of hybrid additive manufacturing systems with the release of LASERTEC 125. The new system is a laser deposition welding machine with machining capabilities which meets the requirements of maintenance, repair and production applications for large-scale parts.
