The award from the USPTO recognizes the rapid development of a 3D-printed swab to test for COVID-19 and making the files public during a global shortage.

Purchase of the Indiana-based company positions Braskem for accelerated growth in 3D-printing sector.

The automated 3D-printing factory debuts at CES 2023. Target sectors include medical and automotive.

Using simulation during the 3D printing process can help users reduce waste by ensuring the part meets specs before it’s printed.

The 3D-printed implants don’t present the stiffness and imaging related challenges of conventional titanium cages, and they enable patient-specific designs.

The technique developed by Purdue University researchers embeds sensor particles in the 3D-printing filament, expanding the design envelope for fully functional parts in a range of shapes.

The partnership will further “chair-side 3D printing” and focus on the production of more sophisticated devices based on new resins.
