Titanium metamaterials, thanks to their nature-inspired geometric structure realized with SLM 3D printing, absorb energy more efficiently and predictably than traditional materials. Designed to distribute stresses homogeneously, they offer a stable stress plateau during deformation, ideal for structural safety applications in the aerospace field

3D printing is revolutionizing microfluidics by enabling the rapid and precise production of complex devices in a single process. Technologies like PolyJet and PµSL allow for the creation of microfluidic chips with micrometer-scale channels, eliminating assembly phases and reducing development costs and times. The integration of advanced design, biocompatible materials, and functional coatings enables

Investors in additive manufacturing are increasingly focusing on operational efficiency and solid business models, leaving technological speculation behind. Businesses with stable contracts, sustainable margins, and the ability to generate real value in the production chain are being rewarded.

Mass customization is now possible thanks to additive manufacturing, artificial intelligence, and parametric design. These technologies allow for the production of thousands of customized variants while maintaining efficiency and margins, overcoming the limits of traditional production. The integration of software toolchains and automated processes enables the management of variability without au

Aibuild OS is an AI platform that unifies the engineering workflow, integrating CAD, CAE, and CAM into a single intelligent environment. It eliminates fragmentation between tools, automates complex processes with “Digital Engineers,” and generates 3D models from text or 2D inputs, reducing errors and production times.

Integrate free or premium 3D resources into your educational or consumer projects to accelerate development and innovation. Choose suitable platforms, verify quality and licenses, and optimize the workflow for professional results.

The certification of medical devices produced with additive manufacturing requires an operational framework that integrates regulatory requirements from the design phase. This approach, called “design for certification”, reduces delays and late reviews, turning compliance into a competitive advantage. It is fundamental to qualify the 3D printing process with documented proof of rep

New 3D printing ink based on lignosulfonate, a by-product of the paper industry, enables room-temperature processes without solvents or post-treatments. Composed of 70% waste material, it is recyclable up to nine times while maintaining high performance, promoting a circular economy in industrial additive production.

The industry is implementing bio-based sustainable materials on a large scale, integrating responsible agricultural supply chains, technological innovation and circular economy. Projects such as Pragati, Bio.3DGREEN and Virtucycle demonstrate how sustainability and industrial performance can coexist, thanks to strategic partnerships and standardization.

There's a prejudice that's hard to die: 3D printed products have an inevitably compromised aesthetic. True Iconic Design overturns this logic by building sculptural home accessories where the production technology disappears completely — and only the design remains.

A new innovative method enables the automatic identification of 3D printed parts directly using CAD models, without the need to retrain machine learning models. Developed by KU Leuven, Materialise, and Iristick, the system leverages geometric representations and few-shot learning techniques to classify new parts quickly and efficiently, reducing times and

High-entropy refractory alloys are revolutionizing aerospace thanks to superior properties at extreme temperatures. Compared to traditional Inconel, they offer greater strength, lower weight, and better performance in applications such as combustion chambers, nozzles, and hypersonics. RCCAs, with disordered BCC structures, exceed melting and corrosion limits, opening up new possibilities for
