Summary
Talk of a new method of 3D printing has been a quiet yet slowly growing buzz in the industry.
Recent steps forward are indications that volumetric 3D printing is no longer just a potential area of research. While still in its infancy, this budding process may eventually be a game changer for the faster creation of small prints, potentially taking the audiology, bioengineering, dentistry, microfluidics and prototyping sectors into the future.
In high-performance automotive engineering, speed and precision are everything. Whether you are dialing in a race car’s aerodynamics for the weekend, fabricating a custom titanium exhaust for a 1,000-horsepower supercar, or building heavy-duty off-road armor, your...
What is Automotive Additive Manufacturing? Automotive additive manufacturing (AM) is the process of creating vehicle components by layering materials based on digital 3D models. It allows for rapid prototyping, the production of complex geometries, and the creation of...
Tania's Pizza is a quintessential family-owned neighborhood pizza shop. For nearly 40 years, the Sheena family has served the Royal Oak community with pizzas, subs, wings and a signature calzone-style stuffed pizza. Now, one of the shop's most important kitchen tools...
High-performance automotive shops are using Markforged continuous fiber and metal 3D printing to produce custom fixtures in under 24 hours, replacing labor-intensive fabrication and weeks-long machine-shop lead times.
Automotive manufacturers are using additive manufacturing to accelerate product development, reduce tooling lead times, support low-volume production, and produce replacement parts on demand. This guide explores the key applications, benefits, challenges, materials, and technologies shaping automotive 3D printing, along with real-world examples of how manufacturers are putting additive manufacturing into practice.
With help from Project DIAMOnD and Oakland County, Tania’s Pizza turned industrial 3D printing into a practical kitchen solution, creating a custom crust crimper that saves time, reduces training and improves consistency for its signature stuffed pizza.
