Everybody likes 3D printing, right? But it’s slow compared to 2D laser cutting. If only there were a way to combine multiple 2D slices into a 3D model. OK, we know that you’re already doing it by hand ...

The machine is suitable for both serial production and more complex, one-off projects. The integrated rotary unit allows fast ...

The Flow Dynamic Waterjet XD’s 3D capabilities and versatility enable shops to cut a wider variety of intricate part designs. Presented as the first highprecision 3D waterjet cutting technology of its ...

Replacing a 3D printer’s extruder with a cutting blade seems like an easy way to do things like vinyl cutting, but you cannot ...

MIT engineers have built a 3D printer that can print in 10 different materials at once, streamlining the manufacturing process. Michelle Starr is CNET's science editor, and she hopes to get you as ...

So a local "maker space" has two introductory workshops. One for laser cutting/engraving, the other on 3D printing. Ideally I'd visit both, since I'm clueless in both techniques and I haven't designed ...

A modern update to how the ancient paper arts of origami and kirigami are used is helping scientists develop intricate shapes in glass and other hard materials using 3D printing, researchers said. A ...

Wire-cut 3D curved surfaces mimic minimal surfaces which cover space with least material and are also stronger. Large areas can be covered with less material. Conservation of planetary resources is ...
