How 3D Printing Is Changing the World
In this blog, Knight Optical, the leading supplier of optical components for a wide range of industries (including the 3D printing sector), runs through the most impressive innovations in the world of 3D printing
Top Article from 2019 - Can a 3D Printer Build a Rocket?
NASA has successfully tested its first rocket engine component made through 3D printing. The 3D printed component produced a breathtaking 20,000 pounds of thrust.
What is MXT? (Metering Extruder Technology)
Article from BigRep. As FFF extrusion technology reaches the peak of its development cycle, it becomes less likely that the technology's quality will meaningfully improve. Additive manufacturing must be rethought from its foundation.
Specialty Materials for 3D Printing
Specialty materials that have different mechanical, thermal, chemical, temperature, and conductive properties will continue to enable use cases where designs can be further optimized through the specification of specialty materials that best suit the part requirements.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Safe Materials for 3D Printing
There are three primary uses for ESD safe plastics: electronics manufacturing (e.g. ESD safe jigs and fixtures for printed circuit board manufacturing), materials in a combustible/explosive environment, and nuisance static charge elimination
New 3D Printing Material Builds Extra-Strength Parts
The materials have a non-uniform, crystalline structure, making components built with them much stronger than those built using a standard uniform lattice structure. So much stronger, in fact, that they can withstand seven times the amount of energy ...
Who's Afraid of the Big Tall Build?
Metal AM gives engineers the opportunity to design higher performance parts with a much simpler manufacturing workflow than traditional manufacturing (think: rocket engines).But, in many cases, taller and larger parts will be no-bid or priced too high for the market.
Thermoplastic Extrusion 3D Printing
This new technology makes it possible to print five times faster - with greater precision and quality - than current extrusion speeds. MXT® establishes a clear separation between filament feeding and melting and molten extrusion...
KeraCel, a World Leader in Solid-state Lithium Ion Batteries, Announced a Breakthrough in its Multi-material Ceramic Battery Using its Proprietary 3D Printing Technology
KeraCel is developing its ceramic solid-state batteries using proprietary additive manufacturing 3D printing technology resulting in unique monolithic structure. The unique structure allows for greatly increasing battery energy density, and producing safer and longer lasting

Manufacturing and Automation - Featured Company
CSP US Inc.
The CSP Manufacturing OS supports companies in the manufacturing industry in setting up an end-to-end quality architecture. It combines all quality-relevant processes in a central system - from the store floor to the compliance level. Instead of isolated individual solutions, an integrated environment is created that monitors processes, prevents errors at an early stage, analyzes data and archives it in an audit-proof manner.
