3D printed materials have come a long way in the last decade or so as printers have become more and more mainstream. Printers can use all kinds of different plastics with varying physical ...

Researchers demonstrated the first fully 3D-printed, droplet-emitting electrospray engine. The low-cost device can be fabricated more quickly than traditional thrusters, potentially from on board a ...

Many firsts: The Agnikul mission was packed with multiple firsts that have significant implications both for India and the world. It marked the country's inaugural rocket launch from a privately owned ...

Shoe box-sized CubeSats are becoming increasingly important in space exploration and collecting scientific data. But these tiny satellites need efficient and precise propulsion systems for in-orbit ...

Collins Aerospace has significantly expanded its additive manufacturing capabilities at a facility in Iowa, part of an effort by the aerospace giant to produce more aircraft engine components via 3D ...

Everybody knows the trick to holding a candle flame to a balloon without it bursting — that of adding a little water before the air to absorb the heat from the relatively cool flame. So [Integza], in ...

3D printing has proven its efficiency in the aerospace industry, and a recent milestone confirms that there are still many interesting applications to explore. This small metal component is no ...

Each of the new CFM LEAP engines, a joint venture between GE Aviation and Safran Aircraft Engines, will have 19 3D-printed fuel nozzles in the combustion that’s impossible to be made any other way.

Ever since SpaceX made reusability the most desirable trait of a spacefaring operation, all the companies working in this industry have shifted their attention toward making hardware that can fly to ...

Making your own 3D printed parts lets you unleash your creativity, but not everything you print is going to be reliable — ...
