The team, based at MIT's Microsystems Technology Laboratories, demonstrated the system by printing an electric linear motor – the type that generates straight-line motion instead of ...

The 3D-printed motor matched or outperformed comparable motors made with conventional manufacturing — and only cost 50 cents in materials.

MIT researchers have developed a multi-material 3D-printing platform that can be used to fully print electric machines in a ...

As many would point out in the years to come—sure, they’d pass on hotwiring a car in their neighbor’s driveway, but they’d be ...

Engineers at MIT have recycled "dirty plastic into building products for homes that are lighter, more durable, and sustainable." ...

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 ...

MIT researchers have shown a new multi-material 3D printing platform that can produce electric machines in one go. In a demo, ...

MIT’s 3D-printed recycled plastic trusses could reduce deforestation and offer a scalable solution for global housing needs.

Multi-material 3D printing lets users fabricate customized objects with multiple colors and varied textures. Yet the process can be time-consuming and wasteful because existing 3D printers must switch ...

AMHERST — A UMass Amherst and MIT team have successfully strengthened an aging bridge in Great Barrington with cutting-edge 3D printing, the university announced Thursday. The 3D-printing technique is ...

3D bioprinting, in which living tissues are printed with cells mixed into soft hydrogels, or "bio-inks," is widely used in ...
