After receiving a $47M U.S. Department of Defense 🇺🇸 contract earlier this year, IperionX has obtained a SBIR Phase III Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity contract. With a potential value of $99M, this will see the company deliver titanium #3Dprinted fasteners to the DoD. Joris Peels


A partnership between a children’s hospital & nuclear scientists sounds odd, but made perfect sense. A pediatric cardiac surgeon at Argentina's Hospital Garrahan worked with nuclear science & engineering center Instituto Balseiro to use #3Dprinting, modeling, & simulation in a complex case.




Temperature changes in orbit can make or break a mission, so keeping equipment from overheating or freezing is essential. That's why 3D Systems is partnering with Penn State Arizona State University and NASA's Glenn Research Center on two new projects to tackle thermal control in space using #additivemanufacturing.

Researchers at Kyiv National University of Civil Engineering & Architecture, Stony Brook University & Politechnika Bydgoska are working with Office of Naval Research (ONR) & the U.S. National Science Foundation Office of International Science & Engineering are working to turn waste from demolished buildings into new #3Dprinted ones.

Oak Ridge Lab IACMI – The Composites Institute Lincoln Electric Additive Solutions speed up auto tooling with #3Dprinted metal molds. HarrisTweedHebrides National Manufacturing Institute Scotland working on accessible loom assembly with #3Dprinted parts.





These days, consumers are more eco-conscious, & many firms are taking a hard look at their sourcing. Is vegan leather a passing fad, a sustained movement, or more? Will companies, at scale, switch to leather alternatives? Will #3Dprinting benefit? Joris Peels investigates for our PRO.

In his latest review, Orville Wright tried the CREALITY 3D Printer Falcon A1. While fully enclosed, with HEPA air filtration & intuitive software, the laser power is weak. It's limited in performance, but a safe, affordable, & user-friendly option for laser engraving & cutting beginners.
