Handi Life Sport explores use of 3D printing for producing boccia balls for paralympic athletes12/29/2017 When you think of bocce or pétanque, it is hard not to think of groups of retired men, sipping on cool drinks and tossing balls in the shade of a park. It’s as though the casual sport is stuck in the past—in a good way, to be sure. via Tumblr Handi Life Sport explores use of 3D printing for producing boccia balls for paralympic athletes Bioengineers from UC San Francisco are using a 3D cell-patterning technology called DNA-programmed assembly of cells (DPAC) to 3D print complex folding shapes out of living tissue. The research could help scientists create complex and functional synthetic tissues. via Tumblr Bioengineers hack cells to make folding 3D printed shapes from living tissue Kwambio, a ceramic production company based in the Ukrainian city of Odessa, has developed an industrial ceramic 3D printer which it says is more precise than existing desktop ceramic 3D printers. The machine, called the Ceramo One, will be available for pre-order as soon as January 2018. via Tumblr Kwambio unveils Ceramo One binder jetting based industrial ceramic 3D printer Hebei University team 3D prints highly accurate patient-specific liver model for under $9012/28/2017 A team from the Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University in China has demonstrated the ability to 3D print a complex 1:1 liver model for surgical planning purposes for less that $90. The team, led by Professor Cheng Shujie, claims the patient-specific 3D printed liver models will help to improve hepatic surgery planning. via Tumblr Hebei University team 3D prints highly accurate, patient-specific liver model for under $90 In the town of Fengjing in the Jinshan District, Shanghai, China recently cemented its reputation as one of the leading global 3D printing innovators with the opening of the world’s first 3D printed bus station. The groundbreaking structure seamlessly integrates science, technology and nature, and it has been put into use for the Fengjing Line 4 bus service. via Tumblr Worlds first 3D printed bus shelter installed in Shanghai, China Taiwans ITRI to launch 3D printed bionic bone implants for ethnically Chinese people in 201812/28/2017 The Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) of Taiwan has developed a range of 3D printed bionic bone structures specifically designed for Chinese people. The 3D printed bones, made from metal and composite materials, are expected to launch on the Chinese commercial market in late 2018. via Tumblr Taiwans ITRI to launch 3D printed bionic bone implants for ethnically Chinese people in 2018 Concurrent Technologies Corporation (CTC) announced it has been granted a patent for its “Additive Manufacturing Using Metals from the Gaseous State” process. via Tumblr CTC patents 3D printing concept that uses gaseous metals to build thin-walled parts GE has successfully tested its Advanced Turboprop (ATP) engine, which contains several titanium 3D printed parts. Additive manufacturing has enabled GE to combine 855 separate parts of the engine into just 12. via Tumblr GE Aviation 3D printed Advanced Turboprop engine passes first test in Prague StoneFlower $535 Ceramic 3D Printing KIT turns FDM 3D printers into clay-depositing machines12/27/2017 Munich-based 3D printing startup StoneFlower has developed a Ceramic 3D Printing KIT that enables ordinary FDM 3D printers to print objects in clay, porcelain, and other materials. The startup will launch a Kickstarter campaign for the kit in the coming weeks. via Tumblr StoneFlower $535 Ceramic 3D Printing KIT turns FDM 3D printers into clay-depositing machines |
