Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) has commercialized a number of large-format 3D printing technologies. Now, scientists are working on error mitigation in large parts. ORNL is using six thermal cameras to analyze the deposition, hardening, and cooling behavior of the beads as they are deposited. Computer vision is then used to adjust the temperature and […]
Last week, drone stocks surged on news that the Trump administration is considering a massive investment in the US unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) industry. Earlier in 2026, the release of the US FY 2027 defense budget request revealed that the Defense Autonomous Working Group (DAWG), a unit launched last year to accelerate adoption of all
Himed, a provider of calcium phosphate and hydroxyapatite, has partnered with Adva Cera. Adva Cera is not a spell to make you stop moving in the Harry Potter universe, but rather a 3D service that uses equipment from Lithoz and Prodways Ceram to produce ceramic parts. The two firms will work on calcium phosphate spine,
As it is in the habit of doing at least once per generation, the semiconductor capital equipment (semicap) market is currently in the process of reinventing itself. This is too complex a process to delve into here with any real detail, but the relevant point is that the additive manufacturing (AM) industry has more than
Bambu Lab continues its relentless march for 3D printing domination with the launch of the A2L. The 330 × 320 × 325 mm printer will have a nozzle temperature of 300°C and a bed temperature of 80°C. Print speed will be up to 500 mm/sec, and it’s designed for PLA, PETG, and similar materials. Users
According to “3D Printing for Dentistry 2025: Market Study and Forecast” by AM Research, the dental 3D printing market generated $5.2 billion in revenue in 2024—that’s nearly one third of the total additive manufacturing (AM) market. That number is expected to nearly double by 2033, to $9.6 billion. So if you hadn’t already realized, this
