A broken motor in an automated machine can bring production on a busy factory floor to a halt. If engineers can't find a ...

MIT researchers have devised new tech that can 3D print entire complex machines with moving parts in a matter of hours.

Researchers at MIT have developed a multimaterial extrusion 3D printing platform designed to fabricate complete electric machines in a single manufacturing step.

3D printing has been touted for its ability to re-shore production and use less overall feedstock than conventional techniques. Discussed less frequently is the technology’s ability to repurpose ...

The next frontier of desktop 3D printing is multi-material and multi-color prints. Right now, you can buy a dual toolhead for a Lulzbot, and dual toolheads from other companies exist, although they ...

MIT researchers have shown a new multi-material 3D printing platform that can produce electric machines in one go. In a demo, ...

This industrial 3D printing white paper explores the properties of thermoplastic and metal materials available with direct metal laser sintering, selective laser sintering and stereolithography ...
