3D Printer to Replicate Human Bones

With the help of their latest invention in science – a 3D printer, researchers managed to create the exact copy of a man’s thumb bones. The device can now be used to help surgeons restore damaged bones by creating their precise copies, which are made from the patient’s cells.

According to Christian Weinand of the Insel [...]

How Do 3D Printers Develop Further?

The technology that goes into 3D printer is amazing, allowing you to easily build prototypes based only on a computer design which you have put together.  These specific printers have grown a great deal since their original conception, however, and you can use this to your advantage when you are trying to figure out how [...]

What Can A 3D Printer Do For You?

Printers for the office have come a long way since their initial conception. No longer are companies restricted to only experimenting with ink printers that produce exceptional looking documents, photographs and pristine presentation materials. These days, companies have the exciting and innovative ability to experiment with 3D printers that actually allow them to create 3D [...]

Tuning A Maker Robot

Pleasant Hardware’s blog deals with the nuts and bolts of 3D printing, and recently they’ve been doing experiments with their MakerBot. One of the experiments involves printing “without a raft”. The raft is that cross-hatch base layer used to isolate the object from the build platform itself.

Removing the raft obviously saves wasted material, but also [...]
