CSIRO has commissioned a new Powder Lab in Clayton, Melbourne, to help Australian manufacturers develop and test tailored metal powders for additive manufacturing.

Australian engineers have developed a 3D-printed titanium material that floats in water even after sustaining significant damage, in a development that could support future manufacturing of marine infrastructure, according to RMIT University.

EOS has called for manufacturers seeking to meet rising demand for drones to develop resilient, scalable production systems rather than relying solely on increased output, during a recent webinar examining additive manufacturing and unmanned aerial systems (UAS).

Australian manufacturing innovation has helped a team of University of Melbourne students  test-fire a 3D-printed rocket engine at an international competition, marking what CSIRO says is a first for an Australian student team at Race2Space.

Australian additive manufacturers are undertaking a qualification program designed to prepare them for potential participation in United States and United Kingdom submarine supply chains under AUKUS, according to the Australian Submarine Agency (ASA).

CSIRO says its Lab22 Innovation Centre is helping strengthen Australia's manufacturing sector by supporting the adoption and development of metallic additive manufacturing technologies, as local industry increasingly turns to advanced production methods.

Researchers from IMDEA Materials Institute have developed an artificial intelligence algorithm designed to improve automated manufacturing by identifying the unique operational characteristics, or "personalities", of individual machines, even when they are the same make and model.

MIT researchers have developed a design framework aimed at improving the manufacturing of 3D-printed concrete structures by incorporating the real-world limitations of printing hardware directly into the design process, potentially reducing material use and lowering the carbon footprint of construction.

Global manufacturing activity supported continued growth in the additive manufacturing sector during the first quarter of 2026, with the worldwide 3D printing market reaching $4.35 billion, according to new quarterly data released by Additive Manufacturing Research (AM Research).

A new research project will evaluate the performance of an Australian-produced titanium powder for advanced manufacturing applications, with the aim of assessing its suitability for producing high-value titanium components using additive manufacturing and other production methods, according to the Additive Manufacturing Cooperative Research Centre (AMCRC).
