Formnext is one of the biggest trade shows in the additive manufacturing world. Each year, new 3D printing innovations are unveiled, making the future of additive manufacturing more and more promising. Like previous years, this trade show took place ...

We already had a few examples of how 3D printing is used in the aerospace industry. In a previous blog post, we talked about 3D printing with moon dust and 3D printed parts on airplanes. Now it’s time to have a closer look at how Additive Manufacturi...

It’s been a while since the Apollo Program and Neil Armstrong’s words ”that’s one small step of a man, one giant leap for mankind” echoed on the radios. But, the aerospace industry doesn’t sleep. Next step: lunar and planetary colonization. We alread...

Additive Manufacturing has been used for medical purposes for a while. We already talked about 3D printed synthetic skin and organs. But there are plenty of other opportunities for 3D printing to not only improve our lives but even save them! In this...

Do you want to use 3D printing? If your answer is “yes”, you will first have to create a 3D model. To make this 3D model, you will have to use CAD software and/or 3D tools in order to make sure that your file is actually 3D printable. These programs ...

Our Design Studio works closely with our clients to give them the best production solutions and 3D printing experience. And that’s how we know what your needs are and how you might struggle with some design challenges. However, Additive Manufacturing...

It is time for our second battle of software. We recently wrote about Fusion 360 vs Solidworks, but today, we are getting prepared for another battle: SketchUp vs Blender. Can these 3D programs be used for the same purposes? Which one is better for a...

Are you in a mood for some history? Today, we are going to take a look at the history of mechanical engineering. You certainly know it, additive manufacturing and 3D modeling are now great solutions, helping mechanical engineers in their daily work. ...

  Conductive 3D printing might seem like old news, as we already talked about how it can help to build electronic devices and electrical circuits in the future. We also wrote about hydroprinting and even MIT’s invention of using colloids for Additive...

    Additive Manufacturing is becoming commonly used in many industries and aerospace is no different. We already talked about 3D printed rocket engines and Siemens’ turbine blades. Now it’s time to talk about Airbus again. Clearly, this Aerospace gi...

Do you know that it is actually possible to 3D print magnetic parts? In this blog post, we are going to talk about two impressive experiments in which 3D printing has been used to create magnetic parts. How does it work? What are the benefits of 3D p...

  Before sending your 3D models for printing there are a few things crucial to keep in mind. They are important to assure your 3D models will come out looking just as good as on your screen. With this blog post, you will learn what are the essential ...
