Researchers created 'growth printing,' which mimics tree trunks' outward expansion to print polymer parts quickly and efficiently without the molds and expensive equipment typically associated with 3D ...

Advances in additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, have generated increasingly powerful capabilities for producing geometrically complex structures that could not be made using ...

University of Florida engineers have developed a method for 3D printing called vapor-induced phase-separation 3D printing, or VIPS-3DP, to create single-material as well as multi-material objects. The ...

New methods for printing objects lead to materials with the flexibility, strength and complexity that nature offers. A new approach in 3D printing uses light to provide flexibility, strength and ...

Researchers developed a fast, precise new 3D printing method that seamlessly merges soft and hard properties into a single object using different colors of light. (Nanowerk News) Inspired by how ...
