Having an enclosed 3D printer can make a huge difference when printing certain filaments that are prone to warping. It’s easy enough to build an enclosure to stick your own printer in, but ...

dragon-shaped asset where scales, horns, and whiskers follow the underlying geometry rather than appearing as a flat overlay.

Even with a well-organized NAS, which I like to think I have, STL files are uniquely bad at being self-describing. They're ...

In order to 3D-print really intricate items, you need a really fine print nozzle. Scientists have discovered that instead of ...

MIT researchers have designed a printable aluminum alloy that’s five times stronger than cast aluminum and holds up at ...

3D printing might have been a niche and expensive engineering hobby once, but now it’s a flexible and way more affordable tool for businesses and casual users alike. Whether you’re an engineer, a ...

3D printers have gained momentum and revolutionized traditional printing over the past few years. Unlike 2D printers, these new and improved 3D printers don’t just print simple papers, but help create ...

The H2C isn't it exactly what we were expecting? It's a multi-nozzle changer rather than a tool changer; however, it is still impressive in that it delivers the ability to print with seven filaments ...

It appears that Flashforge is getting into the toolchanger game. Toolchangers are one option to enable multicolor FFF 3D printing without generating waste. Today’s popular filament swapping / single ...

A new open-source tool is reshaping how engineers design multi-material objects. Charles Wade, a fourth-year PhD student in the Department of Computer Science at CU Boulder, has created a design ...
