‘AM is not a theoretical topic, it’s something you learn by doing’ – Olaf Diegel

Understanding additive manufacturing (AM) and exploiting successful design for AM (DfAM) practices requires ‘hands-on’ experience, according to Olaf Diegel, Professor of Additive Manufacturing at the University of Auckland, New Zealand. Speaking on an episode of TCT’s Additive Insight podcast about his work at the University’s Creative Design and Additive Manufacturing Lab, Diegel talked about the […]

MIT Engineers Advance 3D Printing of Electromagnets

MIT engineers have achieved a milestone in additive manufacturing by developing fully 3D printed solenoids, the essential components of many electronic devices. This achievement could be a boon for manufacturing processes, significantly reducing costs, minimizing waste, and improving accessibility to critical medical equipment like dialysis machines, especially in remote or resource-constrained areas. 3D printed multi […]

Organizing an Industry: AM Coalition’s Mark Burnham on Lobbying in 3D Printing – 3DPrint.com

As Michael Molitch-Hou described in his recap of Additive Manufacturing Strategies (AMS) 2024, one of the biggest recurring themes of the conference was collaboration.
