Lots of people are happy owners of a printer, but few of them ever get to think of an idea that a simple black-and-white printer may be a source of small income. The creators of ZeccerBox give you an opportunity to earn some extra cash on your printer, if you wish so.
Chinese researchers have developed a 3D bio-printer that makes it possible to mass produce human tissue, including skin, cartilage and liver. Measuring 1.6 meters long, 1 meter wide and 1.9 meters tall, the printer was developed by a research team led by Hangzhou Regenovo Biotechnology Co., Ltd. “Mass production of medical materials as well as… Continue reading Chinese Printer to Create Human Tissue
About 500 million printer cartridges end up in landfills each year worldwide, says European Toner and Inkjet Remanufacturers Association. These “empty” cartridges can contain up to 8 percent of unused residual powder by weight and could leach compounds into the soil and underground water sources. In an attempt to reuse this electronic waste, researchers have… Continue reading Printer Toner Can Be Recycled to Iron
Scientists in Israel say they have created a ‘revolutionary concept’ for the 3D printing of food based on a new raw material, Crystalline Nano Cellulose (CNC). They claim the technology will lead to the production of ready-to-eat foods for people with special dietary needs, while also helping to tackle food security problems. The system was… Continue reading Food Printing Technology to Serve Diet Needs
Continuing the column “What else can we print on a 3D printer?”, we should mention a recently improved technology, allowing to use glass as a 3D printing material. The scientists from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (Germany) detailed their findings online in the journal Nature and are spinning off a company to commercialize the technology.
The whole world is rather excited about 3D printing. The scientists from different countries are trying to adopt the technology for different industries’ needs, make it cost-efficient. Very often the news come from top and less famous universities announcing the new 3D printing projects and researches. Founded in 1965 Sweden’s fifth oldest university—Umeå University—is no… Continue reading ‘HangPrinter’ Making a Tower of Babel [+ VIDEO]
