Bambu Studio 2.5.3 introduces Color Mixing: create custom shades by combining 2-3 filaments of the same type. Thanks to a software-controlled optical effect, it generates uniform colors or gradients without purchasing new spools. Requires compatible and translucent materials for optimal results.

Equipping schools with 3D printers is not enough: a structured educational plan oriented towards professional objectives is needed. Programs must integrate practical skills, critical thinking, and knowledge of materials to train professionals capable of choosing and applying technology with awareness.

OrcaSlicer v2.3.2 and Marlin 2.1.3-b3 resolve critical bugs: no more crashes in multi-material slicing, 3MF vulnerabilities closed, and native support for FLY boards and GD32 processors. Essential updates for stability, security, and modern hardware.

A photopolymerizable ceramic slurry formulation enables 3D printing of components with cooling channels down to 0.2 mm. DLP technology overcomes the limits of traditional bonding, opening new perspectives for wafers, micro-coolers, and laser mirrors. Scalability and material stability remain to be verified.

HyCAT, a Pentagon program, accelerates hypersonic aerodynamic testing with dedicated vehicles and commercial launchers, reducing time and costs.

3D printing is revolutionizing the production of RF components, enabling lighter antennas and integrated EMI shielding in electronic packages. Additive technologies improve efficiency, customization, and reduce weight, while posing challenges regarding materials and repeatability.

Automating the post-processing of resin improves precision and repeatability. A modular workflow adapts each phase to the specific parameters of the material, reducing errors and manual times. The integration between the printer and washing/curing stations enables certified, traceable, and scalable flows, ideal for professional and biocompatible applications.

The cost reduction of key components such as lasers and light engines is democratizing additive manufacturing, allowing access to metal 3D printers under $10,000. This change is redefining market dynamics, shifting the focus from hardware to services and adaptability to specific use cases. Modularity and standardization allow new realities to com

Scalable Motion Control for Industrial 3D Printers: modular architecture enabling reuse, upgrades, and flexible adaptation to different mechanical configurations. Dyze Design's Aurora system with two-stage feedback for greater precision and responsiveness. Benefits: cost reduction, targeted maintenance, and gradual integration.

Autonomous warfare requires integrated multi-domain systems, not just drones. The US DAWG program invests billions in sacrificial, modular platforms produced locally with technologies like 3D printing. The objective is to create rapid, scalable, and interoperable defensive capabilities, supported by advanced commands like SAWC. Priorities: distributed production, reduced costs, rapid qualification.

Additive production is revolutionizing military logistics, reducing supply times and costs. The Camp Lejeune model shows how targeted training and technological integration allow for the printing of critical parts in the field, saving up to 99.81% compared to traditional methods.

Recycling high-performance polymers, such as PA12, offers significant economic and environmental benefits. Transforming waste powder into recycled filament reduces costs by up to 30% and increases independence from the supply chain. Maintaining high mechanical performance, the recycled material can be used in non-critical structural applications. A controlled process ensures
