IdeaMaker, the powerful laminator developed by Raise 3D, expands its options by allowing the application of textures to model surfaces via a 2D image.

Polymaker has opted for the development of a more environmentally friendly filament, taking care of every detail to create a sustainable and high quality product: PolyTerra.

Nowadays it is possible to find a multitude of soluble filaments for support, however it can often be difficult to choose the most suitable one. In this post we explain the different alternatives available and how to select the most suitable one.

Scientists at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens have developed a 3D printed device for patient-friendly and non-invasive glucose monitoring.

SLS 3D printing technology is currently the most advanced. We give you 10 reasons to bet on it.

"Silencio", a 3D printed tactile book that seeks to democratise reading to make it accessible to everyone.

There are 3D printer manufacturers that offer closed systems limited to the company's own products while others follow a more open philosophy. However, not everything is black and white and the choice of one model or the other depends on the type of user and their needs.

There is a popular belief that the larger the build volume of an FDM printer the better. However, a closer look at this reveals certain drawbacks that can tip the balance in favour of small format printers.

The search for materials with low environmental impact has encouraged various initiatives and the development of new 3D printing materials, leading to the production of innovative filaments with mechanical properties that resemble those of ABS, or with representative characteristics or physical properties that differentiate them from other materials.

In recent years, the emergence of advanced resins has made 3D resin printing a viable option in many industrial and professional applications, not only in the fields of dentistry and jewellery, but also in medicine.

Resin 3D printers have been gaining popularity in recent years thanks to the emergence of new technologies that have reduced their cost and increased printing speed. Today there are three main technologies: SLA, DLP and LED-LCD. In this post we will explain what each one consists of and which are its advantages and disadvantages.
