Additive Mfg & 3D Printing

RMIT University has announced the development of an experimental 3D-printed diamond–titanium device that can generate electricity from flowing liquid and wirelessly receive power through tissue, which researchers say could pave the way for next-generation medical implants that never require battery replacement.

IperionX Limited has secured an additional USD 25 million from the US Department of War through its Industrial Base Analysis and Sustainment (IBAS) program to support the expansion of titanium production in Virginia. 

The Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), in collaboration with Filament Factory, has unveiled a nano-reinforced polymer composite designed to deliver new levels of performance in advanced materials.

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.

A new investigation sponsored by the ISS National Laboratory will test whether microgravity can improve the development of 3D bioprinted liver tissue, with the goal of advancing regenerative medicine and future biomanufacturing.

Engineers at RMIT University have developed a new type of 3D-printed titanium alloy that is approximately 29 per cent cheaper to produce than commonly used titanium alloys, marking what researchers describe as a significant advancement in additive manufacturing.

AML3D Limited has appointed Arc Additive Limited as its distribution partner for the UK and Europe in a move aimed at accelerating its entry into key manufacturing and defence markets across the region.

Australian metal additive manufacturing company AML3D Limited has secured an order worth approximately $1.2 million for a small edition of its ARCEMY 3D printing system, to be delivered to the US Navy’s Additive Manufacturing Center of Excellence in Danville, Virginia.

Australian metal 3D printing company AML3D has announced that it has received a Letter of Intent (LOI) from the US Department of the Navy, signalling plans to collaborate on key additive manufacturing (AM) initiatives as part of the Navy’s Maritime Industrial Base (MIB) expansion.
