The German Research Foundation (DFG) has approved funding for a Collaborative Research Centre (CRC) that will be tasked with developing “intelligent production technologies for lightweight plastic ...

A soft plastic 'robot' that can take on different shapes is being developed in a NASA laboratory to be used one day for exploring the moon and beyond. It has been made using 3D printing technology ...

In recent years, research interest in the 3D printing of metal patterns on plastic parts has grown exponentially, due to its high potential in the manufacturing of next-generation electronics. But ...

Researchers from Japan and Singapore have developed a 3D printing technique to create conductive metal patterns on the external and internal surfaces of 3D plastic structures. It does not print solid ...
