3D-printing has come a long way from dinky plastic models. In recent years, engineers have started experimenting with ...

A 3D-printed brace shell has helped one lucky loggerhead sea turtle in California get a clean bill of health. The sea creature arrived at San Diego's Birch Aquarium in 2014.

This remarkable house was built using 3D-printing technology, but with a sustainable twist: instead of being constructed using concrete like the majority of 3D-printed buildings, it's predominantly ...

3D concrete printing (3DCP) technology is already known to offer a more efficient approach to constructing buildings. A new type of 3DCP is said to be better, resulting in walls that are a claimed ...

“ 3D-printing, this is not new,” says Gürsoy Toykoç, who develops applications for mycelium, the root structure of fungi as a bio-based building material.

The headstock unit is assembled separately, but similarly; 3D printed outer shell and long lengths of studding and bolts to hold it together.

The concrete body of this machine is housed inside a 3D printed shell, which makes for an attractive skin as well as a handy mold.
