A new 3D printing “glue gun” can generate bone grafts directly onto fractures, and fill-in the gaps around the site’s jagged ...

FARGO — Cameron Kiser took a tumble and landed face first on asphalt. The landing was painful, causing his entire face to throb. A few moments later he discovered it was also damaging: His two front ...

A plump piece of farm-fresh chicken leg rested on a pristine surface at Harvard Medical School. Skin on and bone in, it was precisely sliced to barely crack the bone. A robot arm swerved over, scanned ...

Three collaborating companies have proposed the use of autonomous 3D-printing technologies to monitor and repair the damage to buildings, coral reefs and coastlines that challenging environmental ...

Researchers created a special glue gun that can 3D print a bone-like substance for fracture repair during surgery and have ...

A 3D-printing-based bone repair solution that could reduce surgery times might soon find its way onto the operating table.

Researchers at the University of New South Wales, Sydney, have developed a flexible 3D bioprinter that can layer organic material directly onto organs or tissue. Unlike other bioprinting approaches, ...

The ability to 3D print a variety of healthcare-related products in deployment zones would greatly benefit the nation's warfighters. A recent pilot program conducted by the Uniformed Services ...

Researchers have taken bees as a model to develop a swarm of cooperative, 3D-printing drones. Under human control, these flying robots work as a team to print 3D materials for building or repairing ...

The Break the Grid initiative has a plan for repairing the environment: give 3D printers the ability to autonomously navigate the world around them. To that end, the three Danish companies behind the ...

Saab has flown a 3D-printed replacement part on the exterior of a Gripen fighter jet for the first time. The test flight over the company's facility at Linköping, Sweden, on March 19, 2021, ...

A commonly used material in 3D printing is plastics. The reason being is that it is readily available, cost effective, and allows for rapid prototyping. However, plastics pose an environmental concern ...
