Do You Know Why Is 3D Printing Aviation's Future?


Airbus' latest passenger aircraft, the A350 XWB, contains over 1,000 components that have been 3D-printed rather than manufactured by traditional methods. And this is just the beginning. Find out how Additive Manufacturing is making aircraft lighter, more fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly. (Read more...)

Additive Manufacturing for Flat Head Syndrome


We have heard about many groundbreaking applications of Additive Manufacturing in the medical arena — far too many to list here. Simply stated, Additive Fabrication’s ability to produce quality products customized from body scans to the exact specifications of the patient, positions the technology to make great contributions in a variety of medical and dental applications. Recently “headway” is being made around the use of Additive Fabrication to treat a condition in infants’ known as Flat Head Syndrome. (Read more...)

Additive Manufacturing for Pediatric Orthotics


More than 50,000 children in the United States and more than 500,000 children worldwide suffer from rare diseases and conditions that prevent them from using their arms. Magic Arms, a non-profit organization based in Minneapolis, MN, has been helping these children by providing them with 3D-printed orthotics.

Injection Molds Just In Time


Additive Manufacturing has allowed Arad to produce prototype versions of their meters and parts in just hours, as they use the technology to build sophisticated injections molds for testing those prototypes from the end-use materials they’ve selected. (Read more...)

Additive Manufacturing to Construct Furnitures


People have been designing and producing 3D printable furniture for years now, to varying degrees of success. As you would expect, 3D printing with plastic isn’t always the best option for home furnishings. While there are large-scale 3D printers capable of producing full size pieces, they are not cheap and there is still the fragility of most 3D printing materials to consider. Additionally, most desktop 3D printers have such a small printing envelope that any larger-scale furnishings would generally need to be either modular or printed in parts and assembled after the fact.
