A Company 3D Platform, which is specialized on the manufacturing of large scale 3D printers, presented a new printer. They called it the 3DP Workbench. It is a large-format system with a wide build area of 1m x 1m x 0.5m. Workbench provides high-quality resolution to a 70-micron layer.  

“The 3DP Workbench is more than just another 3D printer, it has been designed through a professional user-experience process-with input from engineers, product developers and top creative talent around the world-incorporating tools they need to take our 3D platform to the next level,” said John Good, Vice President of Sales & Marketing with 3DP. “The result is a comprehensive toolkit that increases capacity, enables them to expand their capabilities and bring their ideas to life.” read more

How to facilitate the International Space Station with extra things when it is hundreds of kilometers far from the Earth? The logistics of today is too expensive and difficult for NASA. Huge structures are folded up for sending them in space and then reassembled in orbit. Such transportation looks like Origami,  but NASA doesn’t have another choice or rather hasn’t had another choice before this year. read more

Bio tissues, plastic, metal, food all are great 3D printing materials. But is this all we can print with? What if we take the lightest of the structures and print it using the modern 3D printer? As a result we can get a superlight, strong and flexible object that can be successfully used in aerospace industry as well as in many others. read more

A wide range of kitchen devices conquered the world and took the right place in the kitchens of simple people and five- star Michelin restaurants. This device is quite new in any kitchen but it is already taken in operation by an experienced chef from Spain, Paco Perez. This is a 3D food printer that is a novelty at his working place in the restaurant La Enoteca at the Hotel Arts in Barcelona. read more

The struggle for cancer patients’ lives is still a vital task of contemporary medicine. Ralph Mobbs, a neurosurgeon at the Prince of Wales Hospital in Sydney, has won a first victory over chordoma, a grave form of cancer. He performed the first operation of implanting 3D vertebrae at the hard-to-get-to location where usual methods of surgery weren’t effective. read more
