Celestiq engineers aren’t just drawing up three-dimensional CAD files and pressing Ctrl+P, though. Before graduating to ...

Setting a new milestone in nuclear research, scientists at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have successfully fired up 3D-printed stainless steel capsules inside one of the ...

Understanding how dislocations (line defects in the crystal structure) occur when 3D-printing metals has been unclear to materials scientists. Understanding when and how dislocations form in ...

Engineers at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) have reimagined what it means to 3D print metal. Instead of ...

Engineering alloys, such as aluminum and steel, are commonly used structural materials due to their high strength and damage tolerance. Over time, these alloys have evolved into compositionally ...

Bundles of stainless steel fiber are used to reinforce layers of 3D printed plastic parts to create a robust, electrically conductive composite material. Metal 3D printed composite parts are produced ...

Rock Island Arsenal is blending centuries-old forging traditions with modern 3D printing technology to keep the Army’s supply ...

Chances are that if you’ve traveled on an Alstom train, that train has one or more of its parts created by 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing. In fact, we’ve just reached the milestone ...

ORNL researchers used a laser powder-bed system at the lab’s Manufacturing Demonstration Facility to 3D print 316H stainless steel capsules for use in irradiation experiments. The capsule provides a ...
