3D printing in space poses challenges, as many methods rely on gravity to position materials during the printing process.
According to the Bureau of Alcohol of Tobacco and Firearms, devices that turn handguns into machine guns are being found more ...
And now it has produced its first metal component in microgravity. Unlike previous plastic-based 3D printing aboard the ISS, this demonstrator shows that it’s possible to create durable ...
In August, the printer successfully printed the first 3D metal shape in space. This product, along with three others planned during the rest of the experiment, will return to Earth for quality ...
In an experiment that sounds about as safe as bobbing for fries, ESA carried out the first-ever 3D metal printing in space aboard the International Space Station (ISS). Built with Airbus ...
Once all four 3D-printed metal parts are produced in space, they will be transported back to Earth to be compared with the same shapes but printed on the ground. These are called reference prints ...
A collaboration between Airbus, Cranfield University, and the European Space Agency (ESA) brought about the first metal 3D printer in space, and has printed its first metal product on the ...
Inventor builds rideable 3D-printed AT-AT walker with metal brackets, brushed motors, and servo legs using potentiometer ...
European car manufacturers are increasingly adopting 3D printing into production, from Bugatti to MINI, see which famous ...
The mini AT-AT stands taller than the average adult human and is built from a combination of 3D printed components and aluminum extrusion framing. Each of ...
