Prior to 1970, bulletproof vests were pretty iffy, with a history extending as far as the 1500s when there were attempts to make metal armor that was bulletproof. By the 20th century there was ...

From houses to hearing aids, three-dimensional (3D) printing is revolutionizing how we create complex structures at scale. Zooming down to the micro and nano levels, a process known as two-photon ...

Choosing the right 3D printing filament can make or break your project. From ASA’s unbeatable UV resistance to PETG’s toughness and PLA’s ease of use, each material has its strengths. Understanding ...

RIT engineering Ph.D. candidate Valeria Marin Montealegre advances 3D printing, using zinc in molten metal jetting, to ...

James has been writing about technology for years but has loved it since the early 90s. While his main areas of expertise are maker tools -- 3D printers, vinyl cutters, paper printers, and laser ...

One-pot recipes make preparing meals quick and easy. And one-pot 3D-printing could do the same for additive manufacturing. Now, researchers publishing in ACS Central Science have demonstrated a new ...

While 3D printing is indeed a burgeoning technology, it's limited by the fact that items can typically only be printed from a single material. A new system still uses just one print resin, but that ...
