In the end of June, one of the leading 3D printer producers—XYZprinting—had announced its first education-focused 3D printer—the da Vinci miniMaker. The model is beginner-friendly and aims for STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics) education.
Recently, important news came from a severe metal 3D printing market. Tokyo-based technology company Ricoh has unveiled a new highly efficient metal 3D printer producing metal injection molding obsolete. The gadget uses a resin binder to sinter metal particles together in a sophisticated 3D printing process.
One could say: “None”, and will be wrong. Because the scientists continue their experiments in the area of medicine and 3D-printed organs. This time, the scientists from the Northwestern University of the U.S. have managed to 3D-print ovaries and to implant them successfully in mice. Nobody was hurt, and the mice have managed to breed… Continue reading What’s The Link Between 3D Printing, Mice And Ovaries?
When you go for a long road trip, it’s wise to take a spare wheel with you just in case. Of course, it makes the car heavier and takes much space. Imagine, if it’s possible to take a 3D printer with you instead and print any replacement automotive-grade parts when needed. Sure, that it takes… Continue reading Chinese 3D Printer For Producing Spaceship Parts
