Abstract: Traditional electronics packaging often requires complex, multi-step assembly processes and conforms to rigid design constraints that limit integration flexibility. In contrast, 3D printing ...

In 3D printing via Fused Filament Fabrication Dimensional stability often determines the practical suitability of a component. Polyamides tend to warp, which can limit dimensional accuracy and ...

Anyone who's mucked about with consumer-grade 3D printers knows that it's infinitely cool to create stuff with them, but you can't realistically expect those products to be particularly durable. If ...

This research aimed to test the reactivity and the feasibility of creating an energetic filament from Viton, ammonium perchlorate (AP), and aluminum (Al). The energetic material is made from a ...

A recent article in Polymer Composites examined the use of recycled milled carbon fibers (rCFs) as fillers in polyamide-6,6 (PA66) filaments for fused filament fabrication (FFF), targeting automotive ...

The Bambu Lab A1 pioneered reasonably priced multicolor 3D printing, and it is still an excellent tool for budget-conscious hobbyists. While Bambu Lab helped pioneer fused deposition modeling (FDM) ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Researchers in biomedical, environmental testing, geology, manufacturing and other fields could benefit from a patent-pending Purdue University innovation that fabricates ...

The Air Force, an enthusiastic user of 3D-printed parts, has awarded a Miami Twp. technology company a $2.5 million contract to design a prototype printer to produce big parts. Cornerstone Research ...

Abstract: Additive manufacturing is a powerful approach for integrating flexible and stretchable conductors into complex 3D structures, but many current printing technologies such as direct ink ...

Though additive manufacturing wouldn’t exist for another 40 years, the prolific American sci-fi author Murray Leinster penned a 1945 short story featuring a spookily prescient description of what we ...
