Astech (Alloy Steel Technologies Inc.) is a sand-casting foundry that produces castings in steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, and gray iron. The company’s specialties include the production of steel ...

New research addresses some of the technical issues that still need to be solved for 3D printed concrete to be strong enough for use in more free-form structures. Researchers found lobster-inspired ...

The technology continues to evolve, but 3D printing is still mostly used for creating prototypes or parts that won’t have to endure tremendous stresses or rigorous wear and tear. That might not always ...

Radiation patterns for antennas can be utterly confusing, especially when presented in two dimensions, as they usually are. Fear not, [Hunter] has your back with 3D printed and color-coded radiation ...

Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) is a popular method of 3D printing metal parts. It creates thin layers of patterned metal by scanning a laser over a bed of metal powder in predetermined patterns ...

Researchers have created DNA-like magnetic nanostructures that form strong inter-helix magnetic bonds. These produce topological textures in the magnetic field, opening the door to the next generation ...

These fast 3D printing projects look far more impressive than their short print times suggest, making them perfect for quick ...

At last, a use for that industrial knitting machine you bought at a yard sale! Carnegie Mellon researchers have created a method that generates knitting patterns for arbitrary 3D shapes, opening the ...

Study shows that bio-mimicking spiral patterns inspired the natural strength of lobster shells can improve the overall durability of 3D printed concrete New research shows that patterns inspired by ...
