The global manufacturing sector is poised for significant expansion in polymer extrusion 3D printing, according to a new report by Additive Manufacturing Research (AM Research). 

Duke School of Medicine has announced the launch of a four-year, USD 3.2 million research effort aimed at developing and using a 3D-printed living lung model to better understand how influenza interacts with bacteria in the human respiratory system.

MIT engineers have developed a 3D-printable aluminium alloy that is significantly stronger and more heat-resistant than conventional aluminium, a breakthrough that could support the development of lighter components for aerospace and other industrial applications, according to the institute.

Engineers at the University of Texas at Austin are leading a collaborative research effort to develop a new 3D printing approach that could change how semiconductor chips and electronic packages are manufactured. 

Apple says it has reached a major manufacturing milestone, announcing that all Apple Watch Ultra 3 and titanium Apple Watch Series 11 cases produced this year are made using 3D-printed enclosures created from 100 per cent recycled aerospace-grade titanium powder. 

Researchers at the University of Sydney have developed a new 3D printing technique to manufacture anatomically accurate replicas of human blood vessels in just two hours, a development the university says could advance the study of strokes and the testing of new treatments.

Formlabs has announced a new suite of stereolithography (SLA) materials designed to bring 3D printing closer to mainstream manufacturing, introducing resins that the company says now rival widely used industrial thermoplastics.

Researchers from Swinburne University of Technology are developing a 3D printing technology that uses earth, plant fibres and other natural materials to help address Australia’s housing shortage.

Researchers at UMC Utrecht and Utrecht University, supported by the European Research Council (ERC), have developed an artificial intelligence-based 3D bioprinting system that could advance the engineering of implantable tissues.

UNSW Sydney researchers are using advanced manufacturing techniques to create 3D-printed marine habitats designed to restore oyster populations in Sydney Harbour.
