Explore the latest advances in metal 3D printing, where researchers bypass STL files to create stronger, more efficient ...

In the beginning, there was the stereolithography file, commonly called the STL file. Although not very complex—it was essentially a collection of triangles—the STL provided a way to get data into ...

3D printing is a surprisingly complicated hobby. Those who wish to successfully master the art need to know about the different file types that their digital blueprints can be saved to. Even those who ...

On the consumer end, there’s one feature that no 3D filament printer currently offers: 100% reliability. Prints can fail for a variety of reasons that are usually impossible to predict, and while ...
