MIT researchers have devised new tech that can 3D print entire complex machines with moving parts in a matter of hours.

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. In Overmatched, we take a close look at the science and technology ...

The 3D-printed motor matched or outperformed comparable motors made with conventional manufacturing — and only cost 50 cents ...

Is it real? Well, yes and no. “While it’s not to scale, this 1.5 inch long model was made entirely from direct metal laser melting and required no assembly,” explains GE in another tweet. Does it work ...

Rocket engineering is shifting from painstaking machining and welding to a world where engines and tanks emerge from printers as single, sculpted pieces of metal. Instead of treating 3D printing as a ...

Researchers demonstrated the first fully 3D-printed, droplet-emitting electrospray engine. The low-cost device can be fabricated more quickly than traditional thrusters, potentially from on board a ...
