3d printing

Following the success and celebration of the comet-landing probe, NASA had announced that yet another breakthrough was made. The International Space Station's 3-D printer created the first ever object made in space.

3D-printed things are being expanded to all the sectors day by day. Doctors as well as hospitals have started using 3D-printed things for treatment. Now it's been saying that neurosurgeons of the world may use 3D-printed brain replicas to save children in the near future.

Since the 3D printing things have shown a great success in most of the cases, doctors as well as hospitals have already inclined to use this technology in with patients. Lately, we have come to know that Beijing Hospital has done the world's first 3D printed vertebra surgery to a 12-year-old boy in China.

3D printers are now becoming common. In fact, they are becoming a great helpful to us. But not all the 3D printers run on the same OS and there are some 3D printers that are quite complex to run. Hence, many people become disinterested using them. But lately, engineers have built 3DPrinterOS, the world's first open 3D Printing OS that is able to…

Interested to know how exactly 3D-printing works or what it can do? What if I tell you that with 3D printing, you can make buildings. Yes, you heard me right. China's private firm WinSun has used giant 3D printers to make 10 full-sized, detached single-storey houses in a day!

3D printed materials are being increasingly used in fields such as manufacturing, technology and modelling. A 3D printed skull was recently implanted in a woman's brain, resolving a critical medical condition.

HP has been considering a jump into the fray of 3D printing. The company has now hinted as much by saying that it has a major 3D-printing related announcement coming up in June this year.

Adobe Photoshop is one of the most wildly popular photo editing softwares. The company has now decided to add support for 3D printing to the software so that you can directly send print commands of an object in Photoshop to a local 3D printer.

3D printing may be a rather recent technology but it is already being used extensively in a number of industries today. The notable defence company, BAE Systems, has now revealed that it has manufactured RAF Tornado fighter jets by using 3D printed parts.

3D printing has become increasingly popular over the past few years, finding many new applications. Therefore many companies are now coming with new amazing 3D printers. In continuation to that trend, lately a company named 3D Systems has come up with a new 3D printer called ProJet 4500 that can create multi-colored plastic items.
