As defined by UNESCO, cultural heritage encompasses artifacts, monuments, sites and museums that hold significant value, whether symbolic, artistic, aesthetic or social. These can be thought of as the objects and areas that help define who we are as a…

3D pens are often seen as a gadget or a toy reserved for children who want to get into 3D printing. However, they are becoming more popular and sophisticated, with more features and compatible materials. They make it possible to…

When it comes to choice of a 3D printer, several criteria must be taken into account: which applications it will be used for, the desired printing speed, the final quality of the parts, the quantity to be produced, among others.…

Bioprinting, which involves 3D printing living tissue models, holds incredible promise for medicine and biology. The technology helps researchers develop personalized medicine, engineer tissues and test drugs and cosmetics. Another application, while far-off, would be 3D printing functional human organs—a…

Robotic arms—motorized, programmable and designed for precision—have long been a staple of industrial automation. With joints and articulations mimicking a human arm, they enhance efficiency in manufacturing by streamlining repetitive tasks. Sound familiar? These advantages parallel those of additive manufacturing.…

Space is the final frontier of human exploration and additive manufacturing is playing a key role in that expansion. From producing rocket components to printing parts in zero gravity, 3D printing is being chosen in aerospace for its ability to…

The success of a 3D print depends largely on the machines and materials you use, but that’s not all. The accessories and tools you have also play a key role in the 3D printing process. There are specific options that…

While additive manufacturing has proven its worth in the production of spare parts, tooling and finished parts for the automotive sector, it is also very popular for vehicle interiors. The car’s interior is an increasingly important space for the driver:…

Nowadays, if you want to get started with the critical step of 3D modeling, there is no longer a need to invest significant money in software! Free solutions exist on the market to get started with modeling your objects or…

STL files are the most common 3D printing file formats. Therefore, we searched the internet for the best sites to download these files for free. Containing thousands of STL files, these websites allow you to download and share a huge…

Between purchasing printers, filaments and post-processing solutions, 3D printing can be an expensive hobby. Because the additive manufacturing market is so large, it is often difficult to choose which 3D printer to rely on. This is true not only for…

Additive manufacturing is amazing for producing lightweight, strong and geometrically complex parts—so the technology is particularly valuable in the aeronautics sector, where strength and weight optimization are critical. Aeronautics is the science and practice of designing, building, and flying all aircraft,…
