What Can 3D Printing Really Do?
And what will it mean for the future of manufacturing? “The Cool Parts Show,” a new video series from Additive Manufacturing, answers these questions with real examples. Watch the first season now.
"Hybrid" Manufacturing Process Combines Deposition and Laser Peening
Research at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln is combining directed energy deposition (DED), a metal 3D printing process, with laser peening for improved mechanical properties.
Brackets Are One Potential Win for 3D Printing
They may not be flashy, but they are necessary. Four reasons 3D printing can build a better bracket.
Material Jetting: It's Like Printing, Just in 3D
Recent advances in material processing capabilities have renewed interest in material jetting, the additive process that allows 3D objects to be built by placing different combinations of material drop-by-drop.
