When a critical part fails on a ship out at sea, miles from the nearest port, the crew scrambles to find a solution, knowing that delays can cost millions and repairs might take weeks. In these ...

One of the biggest issues that plague the desktop 3D printing world is a pesky nuisance known as warping. Warping is due to Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene plastic (or or ABS as it's commonly known) ...

ABS is a durable material that can be 3D printed, but requires a 100° C build surface. The print bed of [Pat]’s Bambu Lab A1 Mini is unable to get that hot, which means he can not print ABS…or can he?

[Chris] has been having some real problems getting PLA to stick to the build platform of his Printrbot. This is of course not limited to this brand of printers, and affects all extruder-based hardware ...

3D printer owners that are looking for a more eco-friendly alternative to ABS that also provides a more reliable print, may be interested in a new 3D printing filament that is now available to ...

ABS (Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) is a filament for K8200 3D printers. It is a copolymer which is made of styrene, acryl and butadiene for high-impact and tough applications. The filament is ...

Over the years 3D printing has continued to engage and interest people for industrial uses as well as consumers. The consumer models started somewhat expensive, and way out of the ballpark of most ...

Anyone who's mucked about with consumer-grade 3D printers knows that it's infinitely cool to create stuff with them, but you ...

As makerspaces and fab labs increase in popularity, more and more libraries are adding 3D-printing capabilities. According to a 2015 American Library Association (ALA) report, 428 public library ...
