One of the issues with extruder-based 3D printing is that it can be very difficult to print objects that have voids in them. You simply must have something to deposit the soft material on until it … ...

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) researchers have developed a novel 3D printing technique that uses light to build complex structures, then cleanly dissolves the support material ...

[Tommy] shares a simple 3D printing design tip that will be self-evident to some, but a bit of a revelation to others: the concept of a sacrificial bridge to avoid awkward support structures. In th… ...

A new way of 3D printing scaffolding for biological cultures developed at MIT could make it possible to grow cells that are uniform in shape and size. The new approach uses an extremely fine-scale ...

When 3D printing a particularly complex object, you often need to incorporate additional support structures into its design, given how the layer by layer. Skip to content Gizmodo. Search .

Fig. 4: A 3D-printed, curved 4 x 4 active phased array antenna. Source: nScrypt. 3D printing on chips depends on the ability to print transistors. But the problems are being able to print transistors ...

Among the 3D printers throughout the room, Vincent Fitzpatrick, a postdoctoral biomedical researcher at Tufts University, holds up a gray unassuming piece of plastic, crisscrossed with a cage-like ...
