An ESA project studies how to transform lunar regolith into conductive materials to print electronic components in space, reducing dependence on Earth supplies.

New smart heat exchangers, made with 3D printing technologies and patented, offer greater thermal efficiency without pumps or fans. Thanks to innovative geometries such as partial fins and preloaded integration in engines, weight, costs and consumption are reduced, improving reliability and facilitating assembly. Applications in data centers and aerospace confirm adva

XTPL and Manz Asia collaborate to integrate Ultra-Precise Dispensing (UPD) technology into semiconductor advanced packaging processes. Thanks to this partnership, XTPL can scale the adoption of its solution without infrastructure investments, entering the Taiwanese market through a technological demonstrator. UPD technology enables sub-micron depositions of materials c

Integrated production on an industrial scale is redefining the manufacturing industry through the physical and digital integration of processes. Advanced automation, data sharing, and artificial intelligence are transforming factories into intelligent, self-optimizing ecosystems, reducing times, costs, and waste.

Advanced photopolymerization in 3D printing includes technologies such as TVAM, which is fast but less precise, and 2PP, which is extremely detailed but slow. Both offer complementary advantages: TVAM for rapid volumes, 2PP for micro-details. Hybrid solutions integrate the two technologies to maximize productivity and precision, opening up new possibilities in fields such as bio-engineering and micro-optics.

Industrial adoption of 3D printing in non-traditional sectors, such as automation, robotics, and energy infrastructure, is growing thanks to structured operational plans. By integrating digital design, simulations, and rapid production, companies like Boston Dynamics and Siemens are optimizing products and processes, reducing costs, times, and the number of components.

Zortrax M300 Plus (3.990 $) is plug-and-play for those who want immediate reliability; Formbot Troodon 2.0 (1.049 $) offers record volume and temperatures but requires DIY calibration and maintenance. Choose based on your time, not just the price.

In 2026, few home 3D printers truly offer innovation: Bambu Lab focuses on modularity and speed, Prusa on an open ecosystem, but speed, materials, and real costs need to be verified beyond the hype.

In 2025, additive manufacturing of metals and ceramics enters industrial production: DED heads without chamber, LFAM for large structures, 3D ceramics for medtech and semiconductors.

Teradyne drives AI chip automation with precision robotics, end-to-end testing, and scalable solutions that accelerate production, quality, and traceability.

The metal 3D printing market is projected to grow by 251% in 2025, driven by aerospace, defense, and China. New PBF and FFF technologies make production more accessible, efficient, and sustainable. Forecasts: $170-250 billion by 2035.
