Harvard researchers have developed a 3D-printing method that could make it easier to build soft robots designed to bend, ...

A broken motor in an automated machine can bring production on a busy factory floor to a halt. If engineers can't find a ...

High-speed 3D printing has just gotten a lot faster. Researchers from Tsinghua University in China have developed a new high-speed printing technology capable of creating complex millimeter-scale ...

New Harvard 3D printing technique builds twistable, bendable robotic muscles in a single print with programmed movement logic ...

3D printing may be a breakthrough technology, but it isn’t sustainable. Most printers still rely on petroleum-based plastics, while greener alternatives are too brittle to use in parts that need ...

The CRAFT method uses widely available materials and inexpensive commercial 3D printers. Using an affordable 3D printer and the CRAFT method, researchers created a model human hand from a single ...

Welding is typically used to join two parts together, whether those parts be metal or plastic. There are various styles of welding, but we won’t go into those here. Casting is the act of pouring a ...
