To Infinity and Beyond
NASA has been making the impossible world of space travel possible for more than six decades is now exploring a more earthbound frontier. It has become a testing ground for generative design—using artificial intelligence (AI) to create novel CAD designs.
Interview with LEGACY MOTOR CLUB: How the NASCAR Team Embraces 3D Printed Car Parts
Consistency is what Steven Sander believes is the key to winning races. He takes us behind the scenes to show how his team consistently uses 3D printed car parts to get their Toyota Camry XSE race cars track-ready.
Talking RAPID+TCT with BigRep
BigRep will be running live demonstrations at our booth all three days. We find that's often the most productive - a conversation on the show floor around real parts tends to be very beneficial.
The printer for the smallest details - Miniature components from 3D printer
The structures that UpNano produces in the 3D printer are so small that they are recognizable neither with the naked eye nor with a strong optical microscope. Only under a scanning electron microscope do the smallest printed structures become visible.
How One Maker and Two Robots Build Civic Monuments: The nioform (Sweden) Case Study
In an old warehouse hangar on the shore of Lake Vänern — no signage, almost incognito — there's a workshop where small models turn into full-scale monuments, theme-park elements, and cinematic "troll skulls."
3D Printed Buoy Gives Voice to Berlin's River Spree
A 3D-printed buoy uses sensors and solar power to reveal the health of Berlin's River Spree and engage the city with its main river. To meet the project's requirements for scale, durability, and sustainability, Jakob partnered with BigRep.
2025 Top Article - AUTOMATION IS UNLOCKING THE FUTURE OF AM SERVICES
In this article, I want to dive into the role automation plays in the approach to AM services, highlighting the benefits it delivers to customers, how it drives operational efficiency, and why it's essential for the future of this industry.
2025 Top Article - How Industrial 3D Printing is Propelling Small and Mid-Sized Manufacturers Forward
With lower barriers to entry, small and mid-sized manufacturers have more opportunities than ever to integrate industrial 3D printing into their operations while avoiding the hurdles that once held them back.
Closing Europe's aerospace production gap - EDM automation as part of the answer
EDM removes material using controlled electrical sparks between an electrode and the workpiece submerged in dielectric fluid. This makes it possible to cut extremely hard metals into complex shapes with micrometre accuracy.
Designing for Deviation in Additive Manufacturing
To truly realise the potential of AM, we need to embrace a new design philosophy, one that doesn't just work around variation, but works with it. At Metamorphic, we call this approach Designing for Deviation.
NewsFender's 3D Printed Ballistic Fender Charts a New Course in Maritime Defense
Discover how NewsFender's 3D printed customizable, eco-friendly fenders and boat parts are making waves in the maritime defense industry.
When Clean is the Key to Precision
Micro molded parts are often invisible to the naked eye, measured in millimeters or fractions of millimeters, with features that can be smaller than a human hair. In this context, a single dust particle can disrupt form, fit, or function.
From Heat to Shock: A Materials Playbook for Gigacasting Automation

Gigacasting automation is the most innovative pathway for creating inexpensive yet structurally sound technologies in some of the most intense industries on the planet.
Comprehensive Guide to Composite Materials and Simulation
Composite simulation is crucial because it lets engineers explore designs, optimize performance, and spot failures digitally, saving tons of time and money compared to physical testing. It's challenging due to anisotropy, modeling delamination, and high computational cost.
BigRep ALTRA 280, the Ultimate High-Temperature Industrial 3D Printer
The ALTRA 280 was engineered to solve a challenge that's persisted for years: reliably and affordably producing large, complex parts in both engineering-grade and high-performance polymers.
