Superhero armor, fantasy swords, sci-fi helmets, and costumes that look like they came straight out of a movie. Los Angeles Comic Con is full of them this Halloween weekend, and 3D printing is helping fans bring some of their favorite fictional characters into the real world. The convention, running from October 30 through November 1
Happy Halloween! There’s nothing scary in today’s 3D Printing News Briefs, except for how much news there is to share! We’ve got stories about an IPO, additive manufacturing (AM) quality data, hybrid manufacturing, metal 3D printing, construction 3D printing, and much more. Read on for all the details! Amaero’s U.S. IPO Back On, Pricing Announced
As is true concerning the growth of any market, increasing AM adoption happens primarily through industrial clusters, hubs of economic activity which harness and accelerate innovation. While Indiana may not receive as much attention as other locales with high concentrations of manufacturing capacity, the Midwestern state is nonetheless home to a manufacturing cluster that encompasses
Australian metal 3D printing company Aurora Labs (ASX: A3D) is raising A$6 million ($4.2 million) to expand production of its small turbojet engines for defense and aerospace customers. The financing comes just days after Aurora secured its first US engine order and reflects a business increasingly focused on manufacturing propulsion systems, rather than selling 3D
In Q3 2025, Protolabs‘ 3D printing revenue fell by around 6 percent year-over-year (YOY), and in Q2 2026, it declined another 2.6 percent to $20.7 million. In Q3 2026, however, the 3D printing segment experienced a decisive rebound, compared to both the same period a year prior, as well as quarter-to-quarter: revenue was $22.4 million,
The Additive Manufacturing CRC (Additive Manufacturing Cooperative Research Centre, or AMCRC) is a cooperative research and implementation organization dedicated to making additive happen in Australia. Headed by Simon Marriott, it aims to encourage more research, startups, collaboration, implementation, and work in additive. The AMCRC has $57 million in government funding, and spreads it to research
