Interested in experimenting with your own multi-color filament? [Turbo_SunShine] says to just print your own, and experiment away! Now, if you’re thinking that 3D printing some filament sounds ...
Imagine being able to create custom vibrant, multi-colored 3D prints with the same ease as printing a single-color object. For hobbyists and professionals alike, this idea sparks excitement—but anyone ...
Here’s another cool project out of MIT’s CSAIL labs. Researchers are looking to bring color-changing properties to the 3D-printing process in an attempt to help reduce material waste. That last bit is ...
(Nanowerk Spotlight) A new generation of lenses ('metalenses') is starting to replace bulky curved lenses with simple, flat surfaces that use nanostructures to focus light. These flat surfaces ...
3D printing has evolved to a point where dual extrusion isn’t really that special anymore. A few years ago, a two-color frog print would have been impressive, but this isn’t the case anymore. The ...
Scientists have created a 3D-printing media that can take on different colors in different parts of a single print job. The secret lies in utilizing ultraviolet light to selectively alter the surface ...
The Mosaic Manufacturing Palette 2 – an upgrade the original Palette – is a self-contained system for full color 3D printing. It works by cutting and splicing multiple filament colors and then feeding ...
Irish company Mcor's unique paper-based 3D printers make some very compelling arguments. For starters, instead of expensive plastics, they build objects out of cut-and-glued sheets of standard 80 GSM ...
In a leap forward for materials science, a multi-institutional team of researchers has developed a pioneering method of 3D printing cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers (CLCEs), enabling complex, ...
Sunday brought another big step forward in 3D printing: Stratasys, a Minnesota and Israel-based 3D printer manufacturer, unveiled the world’s first multi-material and multicolor 3D printer, the ...
