One thing about engineering is that you will always come across designs. In fact, most people might tell you that engineering is all about coming up with designs that can work efficiently in a particular setting. As such, engineers have to use the best services in order to deliver structures that function as efficiently as […]
CNC prototyping is the use of a CNC machine to make prototype parts. These parts are used in functional testing or fundraising in the market. CNC prototyping is ideal for part testing and molding prototypes. However, 3D printing is considered the most common technique. It is known for its versatility and precision. CNC prototyping also […]
Look, a 3D print— uh, I mean a CNC machine — never mind, it’s definitely a laser— no, wait… all of the above? Snapmaker is back with their 2.0 that has all the makings of a good action movie; transforming machines, lasers, fast moving sharp objects, molten stuff, and limitless creative potential. And we had […]
3D printing has been all the rage lately with both professionals and prosumers accomplishing incredible things from printing patient organs for surgery practice to printing robotic arms and quad-copters. As with all things, there has been a trickle-down effect that’s led to even the most inexperienced being able to obtain this revolutionary technology. Here we will […]
Apple uses the Tenth Anniversary iPhone X Phone to replace Touch ID. Because the award handset features an edge-to-edge protection and has very slim bezels, Apple had to get up with a way to reinstate the fingerprint scanner that powers Touch ID. So the group in Cupertino decided to use a facial identification system to […]
Are you looking for some cool things to 3D print? It’s the current decade when we have started to see 3D printed things more often. Just like the Jetsons, soon, we might be tasting 3D printed pizzas and hotdogs. In fact, people have already developed the first versions of such food throwing machines. Online community-driven […]
The US federal authorities asked a 3D printing lab to recreate a dead man’s fingers to unlock his smartphone … will it work? Do you remember the battle Apple vs FBI conducted to force the IT giant on unlocking the San Bernardino Shooter’s iPhone, well it has become a story of the past. The federal authorities […]
Imagine hearing about the mysterious smile of the Mona Lisa, the surrounding Klimt kiss or Van Gogh’s famous Sunflowers without ever getting to know what they really look like. For visually impaired, access to visual artworks is not simple – an option offered by some museums are descriptive guided tours, in which images are “translated” […]
Lately, we have seen some of the most exciting developments in the futuristic manufacturing industry. Irrespective of you being a specialized professional or just a consumer – you have to agree that the rise in the production of 3D printed prosthetic devices took the equipment to some good usage, and all the credit goes to […]
A San Francisco Bay Area based artist and designer Ted Kessler has always yearned to merge art with science. A bachelor in Digital Arts from the University of Oregon, Kessler has rich background in digital imaging, web programming and music. This infatuation basically paved way for the creation of the 3D Ear to Hell, Kessler’s […]
Apparently, scientists are a step closer to reducing the grave effects of Type-1 Diabetes after discovering a way to implant insulin-creating cells into the pancreas. Previously this method was found to be unsuccessful but is working now as scientists can use a “3D-print” structure for cells protection, according to IOP Publishing. The attempts to implant […]
When it’s about performing surgeries on vital organs, today’s advanced imaging techniques such as CT scans, MRIs and ultrasound machinery have made an easy access pass inside patient’s bodies for doctors even before they cut the patient open. This has done wonders for doctors and patients both saving them from unexpected situations. In recent past […]
A big day in the history of animal prostheses has arrived, Turkey’s medical 3D printing company provided an injured turtle with a prosthetic jaw. The turtle was struck by a boat propeller and broke its jaw and beak. According to the 3D printing industry, the turtle was found half dead and was immediately rushed to […]
