3D Printing News

Finally, 3D printing also has the potential to upend the pharmaceutical world and vastly simplify daily life for patients with multiple ailments. So many of us take dozens of pills each day or week, and the organization, timing and monitoring of these multiple medications and their diverse drug interactions and requirements (morning, night, with or without food) is utterly exhausting.But 3D printing is the epitome of precision. A 3D-printed pill, unlike a traditionally manufactured capsule …

What you need to know for 3d printing? What parts make up a 3d printer?In 3D printing, here are some common jargon and names for parts that you may encounter along the way. Filament: A material (often plastic) manufactured into a long strand (like a cable). These are used by some types of 3D printers to manufacture objects. Extruder: The part of the machine where the material is melted. Nozzle: A small hole from which melted filament is pushed (“extruded”) out of. Bed: The surfac …

Everyone is talking about 3D printing these days, but what exactly is it? Here’s a quick guide to what all this about, including how a 3d printer works and what it can do.What is a 3D printer?3D printers are a new generation of machines that can make everyday things. They’re remarkable because they can produce different kinds of objects, in different materials, all from the same machine.A 3D printer can make pretty much anything from ceramic cups to plastic toys, metal machine parts, stonew …

Bone Conduction: How it WorksWe all hear sounds through both our bones (bone-conducted or bone-transmitted) and our eardrums (air-conducted or air-transmitted). Most sounds are heard by our eardrums. The eardrum converts the sound waves to vibrations and transmits them to the cochlea (or inner ear). However in some cases vibrations are heard directly by the inner ear bypassing your eardrums. In fact, this is one of the ways you hear your own voice. This is also how whales hear. Ludwig van Beetho …

SKULPT is a unique sculptable 3D printer filament materialized by Thibra3D, which allows one to post process SKULPT 3D printed objects similar to sculpting clay. By projecting a temperature of ± 70° C on the SKULPT 3D printed object it will be possible to tweak and finetune the 3D printed object by sculpting it or remodeling it slightly. Visible 3D printed layers and imperfections caused by blobs, zits, zippers and removed support structures on the SKULPT 3D printed object can very easily b …
