MakerWorld has enhanced its copyright protection system, allowing creators to report abuse and protect their digital creations. The new centralized tool facilitates evidence collection and legal support, in exchange for content exclusivity on the platform.

From agricultural waste to construction materials: an innovative industrial process transforms waste such as straw and peels into eco-friendly panels and bricks. Technologies such as robotic extrusion and 3D printing enable the creation of high-performance biocomposites, reducing the environmental impact of construction. Projects such as CORNCRETL in Mexico and European initiatives demonstrate industrial feasibility

Australia is using additive manufacturing to build more resilient public infrastructure, reducing dependence on foreign suppliers and strengthening local production thanks to collaborations between research, industry, and government.

Prusa launches PETG Ultraglow, a high-quality phosphorescent filament. Superior to glow-in-the-dark PLA for brightness and durability. Ideal for technical and safety applications thanks to the resistance of PETG and its ability to shine for a long time. Requires hardened nozzles for printing. High cost but justified for professional use.

The convergence between additive manufacturing and retail is redefining custom production, extending it from consumer goods to industrial sectors. Thanks to 3D printing, it is possible to produce multiple variants without additional costs, while artificial intelligence manages design complexity. Retail points are transforming into production and data collection nodes, enabling personalization

Post-processing and debinding are crucial stages in additive manufacturing that determine the quality, strength, and finish of components. Technologies such as vapor smoothing and chemical debinding improve surface and structural properties, making parts ready for industrial use.

preFlight is a new open source slicer that renews the traditional architecture to improve precision, stability, and the management of technical debt accumulated in legacy slicers like PrusaSlicer. Designed with modern standards, it supports 64-bit pipelines, updated libraries, and innovations like Athena Perimeter Generator and Interlocking Perimeters, aiming for greater reliability and performance in the

The integration between additive manufacturing and digital twin is revolutionizing the industry, enabling the transformation of virtual models into optimized physical components. This synergy reduces development times and costs, improves production efficiency, and allows for continuous innovation in sectors such as aerospace and energy.

3D printing is revolutionizing architecture: models and concrete houses in days, zero waste, recycled materials and circular design for a sustainable future.

Quick guide: choose the right CAD to print in 3D without errors. From free models (Tinkercad, Fusion 360) to modeling rules, you get to optimized printing in a few hours.

Industrial 3D printing is a reality: it requires gradual integration, advanced materials, digital workflows, and measured ROI to scale successfully.
