When the 3D printer gives up, don’t wait for the experts. Here are solutions to the most common problems: layers failing to attach, stringing, and overheating. Sometimes there isn’t the time or money ...

It's looking more and more certain that 3D printing has a serious safety problem. Though largely overlooked in the tech press, the problem is pervasive and could impact millions of students, patients, ...

Researchers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) are looking into the reliability of metal 3D printing and its ...

Imagine waking in the middle of the night to the sound of your 3D printer, printing away. You know you didn’t request a print. In fact, you’re sure of it, because your previous project is still on the ...

3D printing was first introduced in 1984 by Charles W. Hull. The inventor developed computer-aided software that designs and creates three-dimensional objects. After more than 30 years, 3D printing ...

A research team has found that island scanning, a printing scheme commonly used to prevent stresses from degrading or destroying 3D-printed metal parts, may not be a cure after all. Laser powder bed ...

Inexpensive 3D printers often have a problem called "warpage," in which objects printed by them tend to curl up as they harden. Now, however, scientists have harnessed the power of warpage to create ...
