While 3D printing technology does allow complex metal parts to be produced efficiently, such items often deform when stressed and heated. That may soon no longer be the case, however, thanks to a new ...

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 ...

Aluminum is prized for being lightweight and strong, but at high temperatures it loses strength. This has limited its use in ...

Researchers have developed a new method for 3D printing metal that could help reduce costs and make more efficient use of resources. Researchers have developed a new method for 3D printing metal that ...

Most 3D printing enthusiasts have encountered quality issues during their printing journey. Halfway through a complex project, problems such as sagging bridges, uneven surfaces, or inconsistent ...

(Nanowerk News) MIT researchers have used 3D printing to produce self-heating microfluidic devices, demonstrating a technique which could someday be used to rapidly create cheap, yet accurate, tools ...
