Researchers have come up with a 3D printing method using liquid metal that's claimed to produce structures at least 10 times faster than existing metal additive manufacturing processes, though it does ...

MIT spin-off Rapid Liquid Print has raised $7 million in funding for its novel liquid-based 3D printing technology. Boston-based Rapid Liquid Print was founded as an additive manufacturing startup in ...

High costs of powdered metals and the need for 3D printing/additive manufacturing equipment that can accommodate these materials are challenges that are being met by Rochester Institute of Technology ...

(Nanowerk News) MIT researchers have developed an additive manufacturing technique that can print rapidly with liquid metal, producing large-scale parts like table legs and chair frames in a matter of ...

(Nanowerk News) The term 'liquid metal' refers to metals with melting points near or below room temperature. Mercury (Hg) and gallium (Ga) are the two most recognized elemental liquid metals (read ...

Established processes for digital light manufacturing print objects that are made from materials called photopolymers and use one of two main configurations. In the first, light patterns are projected ...

Researchers at MIT have developed a rapid 3D-printing technique that uses liquid metal to allow for extremely fast prints. The process can manufacture large aluminum components in minutes, whereas ...

Flexible three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D ICs) enable high-density interconnects, miniaturization, and multifunctionality. Unlike rigid circuits, flexible 3D ICs can conform to various ...

Engineers have developed a new way to 3D-print liquid and solid materials together, potentially leading to more dynamic and useful products -- from robots to wearable electronic devices. Imagine a ...
