Surgical instruments produced via 3D printing may soon replace steel ones in less economically developed areas around the world.
A puppy named Loca suffered severe facial injuries after a dog fight. Parts of her jaw were broken and she wasn't able to eat. Footage provided courtesy of the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine shows how a team of vets designed the Exo-K9 face mask specifically for Loca, a four-month-old Staffordshire bull terrier. She wore the mask for several months after vets performed surgery and made a full recovery.
The world's first ever 3D-printed excavator was unveiled at the 2017 CONEXPO-CON/AGG show, an international construction trade show, at Las Vegas Convention Center, Tuesday. Made with a range of additive printing processes, the machine is called the Additive Manufacturing Excavator, or AME. Several institutions, including the Association of Equipment Manufacturers, the National Fluid Power Association, the Center for Compact and Efficient Fluid Power, The OAK Ridge National Laboratory and the National Science Foundation, built the AME. Two research teams of graduate engineering students from Georgia Tech and the University of Minnesota also designed several sections of the excavator, including the cab. The most important piece of information about the AME is that it actually works, and works well. Not only is the AME set to drastically reduce costs for excavators in general, the designers and builders of the AME envision great things for its future. It could be used in helping to rebuild lower income communities and may even play a role in developing land on Mars for human habitation.
It may not look like it, but this new supercar is nearly entirely 3D printed. That's right, the chassis parts of the Blade Supercar, manufactured by automaker Divergent 3D, was printed out of composite materials and put together by hand. Divergent 3D CEO Kevin Czinger was on site as his company presented their Blade Supercar at the Los Angeles Auto Show on Wednesday. Oh, did we mention that the Blade is federally approved for highway travel? Powered by a 700 hp, 4-cylinder turbocharged internal combustion engine, the Blade can go from 0 to 60mph in 2.5 seconds
Welcome to Food Ink, a restaurant that combines dining with technology where all the food, all the utensils, and even all the furniture is produced by 3D printers. Food Ink opened for a special 3 day event in east London and had a limited amount of tickets available for the world premiere. An international team of top chefs, led by Joel Castanye and Mateu Blanch, were joined by artists and technologists as they prepared a 3D printed 9 course meal for the guests before their eyes.
Dubai says it has launched a prototype 3D-printed office building, with floorspace of about 2,700 square feet.
