Castor software evaluates parts for whether they would be better and more cost-effective 3D printed. Additive manufacturing (or 3D printing) makes industrial parts faster, cheaper, and better, but not ...

Thyssenkrupp and Wilhelmsen launched a 3D printing joint venture aimed at providing 3D-printed spare parts to the maritime industry. Mechanical parts wear out and break. It happens to cars, planes, ...

When I was growing up, my dad and I restored classic cars. Combing junkyards for the pieces we needed was a mixture of interesting and frustrating since there was always something you couldn’t find no ...

In this video I'll show you how I treated my rc car, and how I designed and printed a new 3D part for it. The car is a zd Racing Thunder, it's a cool car but if you push it to the limit be prepared to ...

Even the most dedicated gearhead can’t restore a classic car without the right parts. The older and/or rarer the car, the harder it is to find parts for. But Porsche is using new technology to keep ...

Aluminum is prized for being lightweight and strong, but at high temperatures it loses strength. This has limited its use in engines, turbines, and other applications where parts must stay strong ...

Inside a facility near the North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset, New York, a new miniature factory filled with 3D printers sits ready to automatically print out models of a patient’s heart or ...

NASA's first attempt at using 3D-printed parts for rocket engines has passed its biggest, and hottest, test yet. The largest 3D-printed rocket part built to date, a rocket engine injector, survived a ...

Delivered increased strength vs. 3D printed, unreinforced polymer parts, yet met a tight schedule and maintained reduced cost. Achieved geometric complexity not possible with conventional ...

The International Space Station's 3D printer has produced its first part, ushering in what proponents hope will be a new age of off-Earth manufacturing. The 3D printer, which was designed and built by ...
