Leveraging Innovative 3D Printing Capabilities to Strengthen America's Defense
DSI's Military Additive Manufacturing Summit is designed to support the DoD's efforts to leverage 3D Printing technology to deliver greater operational flexibility to Warfighters in the deployed environment. Speakers joining this forum will outline their efforts to use additive manufacturing to improve overall mission readiness and drastically reduce the manufacturing, storage, maintenance and sustainment costs of resources as they pass through the Military logistics supply chain.
The Latest and Greatest of 3D Manufacturing
We find ourselves at a significant intersecting point in manufacturing history with growth and innovation driving manufacturing technology. 3D printing is about to change the world and manufacturers are capturing the moment.
Keys To Developing A Successful Product Prototype
Moving a product concept to the prototype stage remains an exciting step.
The Rise and Fall of the Everyman Tycoon
Article about the rise and fall of MakerBot by Andrew Zaleski at Backchannel:
Itwas October 2009 when Bre Pettis — his unmistakable sideburns and dark-rimmed rectangular glasses framing his face — took the stage at Ignite NYC, threw his hand in the air, and shouted “Hooray!” two times. A PowerPoint slide lit up behind him, revealing a photo of a hollow wood box crisscrossed with wiring. Bouncing up and down, his profuse mop of graying hair flopping about, Pettis began: “I’m going to talk about MakerBot and the future and an industrial revolution that we’re beginning — that’s begun.”
A former art teacher, Pettis had emerged as a key character in the growing maker movement of the late 2000s, a worldwide community of tinkerers who holed away in makeshift workshops and hackerspaces, equally at home with tools like old-school lathes and contemporary laser cutters. Pettis had begun his ascent in 2006, producing weekly videos for MAKE magazine—the maker movement’s Bible—that featured him navigating goofy tasks such as powering a light bulb with a modified hamster wheel. In 2008, he cofoundedthe NYC Resistor hackerspace in Brooklyn. By then, Pettis was a star. A year later, he launched a Brooklyn-based startup with friends Adam Mayer and Zach Smith (also a NYC Resistor cofounder) called MakerBot... (full article)
Airwolf 3D Fills Void in 3D Printing Market with Wolfbite ULTRA™, the First 3D Printing Adhesive for Industrial-Grade Polypropylene
Polypropylene is the most widely used plastic in automotive and other industrial applications, but the material is traditionally very difficult to use when 3D printing. With its unique 3D printers and exclusive new Wolfbite ULTRA, Airwolf 3D is the first company to provide a cost-effective way to 3D print polypropylene parts.

Hospital to get first dedicated 3D tissue-printing facility
Steve Dent for enGadget: You still can't get a 3D-printed liver transplant made from your own cells, but an Australian hospital is trying to push the tech into the mainstream. The Queensland University of Technology (QUT) in Brisbane is building a dedicated "biofabrication" space where doctors and researchers can develop tech to model and print cartilage, bone and other human tissue. "It will be the first time a biomanufacturing institute will be co-located with a high-level hospital," said Australian Minister of Health Cameron Dick.
The facility will occupy two floors of the hospital and use state of the art tissue manufacturing tech in surgery procedures. "Our vision for healthcare is that the biofabrication institute will pave the way for 3D printers to sit in operating theaters, ready to print tissue as needed, in our hospitals of the future," Dick said.
