While large 3D printers have their advantages, they can also take up a ton of desk space. Here are some compact printer ...

A 3D printer can be put to use for many items at home. Kitchen and office accessories are popular but a movie lover can also ...

Dozens of tests have made it clear which companies value accuracy.

A fabrication process can produce self-heating microfluidic devices in one step using a multimaterial 3D printer. These devices, which can be made rapidly and cheaply in large numbers, could help ...

Researchers at The University of Texas at Austin are pioneering a 3D printing method that could pave the way for new developments in prosthetics, flexible medical devices, and stretchable electronics.

A new technology being pioneered at Caltech is allowing researchers to "evolve" optical devices and then print them out using a specialized type of 3D printer. These devices are made of so-called ...

Researchers are targeting the next generation of soft actuators and robots with an elastomer-based ink for 3D printing objects with locally changing mechanical properties, eliminating the need for ...

For decades, traditional lithography techniques—such as electron beam lithography and nanoimprinting—have struggled to meet the demand for ultra-fine, high-aspect-ratio structures in general. Similar ...

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has released a new draft guidance for medical device manufacturers working with additive manufacturing (AM), which is more commonly known as 3D printing. In ...

MIT researchers developed a fabrication process to produce self-heating microfluidic devices in one step using a multi-material 3D printer. Pictured is an example of one of the devices. MIT ...
