News and Insights of 3D Printing and Manufacturing
Turkey based Oo-Kuma launched its new range of 3D printers, including a desktop system alreayd available to buy and a larger production systems available for pre-order. The desktop KATANA 3D printer has one piece body frame and is built using aerospace grade alloys and manufacturing processes enabling to keep working for thousand of hours without any maintenance.
On 3DPMN we’ve expressed our doubts on the ONO (formerly OLO) 3D printer before as much as we’ve also highlighted the realistic aspects of this project (and even published a video of it running). However it seems that the hyped-up, Kickstarter-funded, smartphone 3D printer, which collected over $2.3 million during it’s crowd-funding run, is several months late (close to two years, according to some). Although delays may be understandable for any Kickstarter project, many of the backers are beginning to lose their patience.
Simple, affordable, 3D Printing is now available to anyone thanks to SparkMaker. The company has announced the release of their one-button desktop 3D Printer that brings the quality of SLA printing to the masses with a $99 starting price on the upcoming Kickstarter run. Now anyone, with a computer and a spark of creativity can unlock the magic of 3D printing.

Solidscape, the Stratasys-owned leading producer of high precision 3D wax printers, is taking precision investment casting and rapid prototyping of complex geometries to the next level with the launch of the S500 high precision 3D printer. The Solidscape S500 and relative materials, which were introduced earlier this year at the Design Engineering & Manufacturing Solutions Expo in Tokyo, Japan, The new printer and materials are available for immediate purchase
At Christmas 2016, Sculpto launched a polar 3D printer that was completely different from other desktop 3D printers. After only a short period of time, it became one of the best-selling 3D printers in all of Denmark. Now the Danish company developed their 3D printer further and is about to launch the new Sculpto+!
Food 3D printing is one of the strangest verticals in 3D printing. There are plenty of possible experimental applications and it is definitely something that a large number of people are interested in, however progress in this area has been slower than in segments – such a bioprinting or silicone and ceramics 3D printing – which also can use the same basic pneumatic extrusion 3D printing process. A Chinese company called Shiyin Tech has now taken a few more steps in the right direction with its new user-friendly Sweetin food 3D printer.
Performance 3-d, a leading provider of high performance upgrade parts for 3D printers and rapid prototyping services, introduces the Airwolf AXIOM and Makergear V4 nozzles as part of its Hercules line. The addition of these products will allow P3-d to offer advanced printing capabilities to a wider variety of 3D printing enthusiasts.
PostProcess Technologies, the Buffalo, NY-based company that is the first and only to automate post-printing for the industrial 3D printing market, appointed four new senior level professional figures to drive expansion and scalability of Operations, Engineering, Marketing and Sales. The addition of these experienced leaders is expected to further accelerate company growth in the booming additive […]
Check out this video of a recent test on the Printrbelt, Printrbot’s newest infinity 3D printer. The 20” long system 3D printed a 6-foot long sword. The belt carries the print along until it peels off of the end of the bed. With a little bit of support under it, this print could go on literally forever.
