[Photo: i.materialize] First we could print on paper, next came 3D-printed plastics, then food, a flute, and even a car! What’s next, titanium parts? Oh wait–it’s already here. The company ...

CADmore Metal has introduced a fresh take on 3D printing metal components to the North American market known as cold metal fusion (CMF). John Carrington, the company’s CEO, claims CMF produces ...

Apparently, folks in the material science world are totally over the fact that we're able to 3D print titanium alloys willy-nilly. Because they have exceptional strength-to-weight ratios, corrosion ...

Have you ever spent hours perfecting a 3D-printed design, only to struggle with attaching screws or bolts securely? It’s a frustrating experience that many makers and engineers face. Threads are ...

A team of researchers has created a new class of titanium alloys that are strong and not brittle under tension, by integrating alloy and 3D-printing process designs. The breakthrough, published in the ...

People often contact me because they want to 3D print a replacement part. The requests have been as mundane as a stove knob or as novel as a replacement crystal for a chandelier. Typically, they are ...

Perhaps one of the oldest dreams of a science-fiction future is the ability to create something where once there was nothing. If we could create solid, stable objects out of thin air, the idea of ...

Let's face it: the majority of bicycles on the market look alike. Well, every once in a while, a diamond shines its flares from behind the mud, and this time around, that gem is No. 22's all-new ...

Metal 3D printing has long promised aerospace-grade parts at desktop scale, but titanium has stubbornly resisted that vision. A new approach called cold metal fusion is changing that equation, turning ...
