Aiming to combat labor shortages, Lyons Industries has been gradually installing automated processes to replace the traditionally labor-intensive spray-up process for its fiberglass composite bathtubs ...

Enter the Formlabs Form 4L, a resin 3D printer that’s redefining what’s possible for professionals who demand the best. Unlike filament-based printers that struggle with fine details, the Form 4L ...

Having access to tools can greatly expand an engineer’s ability to build. As technology advances, it tends to become more accessible as it drops in price or increases user-friendliness. Once 3D ...

[JohnSL] and his friend both have injection molding machines. They decided to compare the aluminum molds they usually use with some 3D printed molds created with a resin printer. They used two ...

For most of us, 3D printing means printing in plastic of some sort — either filament or photo resin. However, we have all wanted to print in other materials — especially more substantial materials.

When most people think about 3D printing, they probably imagine an FDM (fuse deposition modeling, or fused filament fabrication) printer — a thin plastic filament feeding through a hot extruder that ...

Resin 3D printers, like the Anycubic Photon or the Elegoo Saturn, have gained popularity for producing high-detail prints with smooth finishes. While FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) printers are ...

With 3D printing becoming more and more accessible, there still exist a few limitations or practices that come out rather messy. One of these practices is resin stacking which could not only be messy ...

New animal-tracking tags are cast from 3D-printed molds to better conform to animals’ bodies. 3D printing makes the complex organic shapes no costlier to build than plain geometric parts. New ...
