To utilize this property, the team designed a composite structure using dual-nozzle fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printing to directionally align graphene within a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU ...

Since the fartmaker needs to be flexible, you can't use normal 3D printer filaments or any form of printing resin. Instead, you have to use thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) extruded from a 0.4 or ...

A promising solution involves integrating FBG sensors into 3D-printed components ... The novelty is to combine the benefits of two materials: thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), to enhance the sensors’ ...

If you don't know about digital light processing 3D printing, get to know it! This revolutionary form of 3D printing is gaining rapid traction across multiple industries, with the potential to ...

The research findings have been published in RSC Applied Polymers. The 3D printing industry is increasingly calling for resins made with renewable resources to advance more sustainable additive ...

Turning ideas into tangible creations by building one layer at a time with incredible precision — this is 3D Printing in a nutshell. Since its inception in the 1980s, this transformative ...

3D printing is all well and good for prototyping, and it can even produce useful parts. If you want real strenght in plastics, though, or to produce a LOT of parts, you probably want to step up to ...

China is getting ready to 3D-print bricks on the moon using lunar soil, in what could be a huge step toward building a base on the lunar surface. The Chang'e 8 spacecraft is currently scheduled to ...

Let me throw in a curveball—watching your 3D print fail in real-time is so much more satisfying when you have a crisp, up-close view of the nozzle drama. That’s exactly what [Mellow Labs ...
