MIT researchers have devised new tech that can 3D print entire complex machines with moving parts in a matter of hours.

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

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. In Overmatched, we take a close look at the science and technology ...

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 ...

Skyroot Aerospace has tested its Dhawan-III cryogenic engine, a 3D-printed marvel for reusable rockets. This breakthrough ...

Rocket engineering is shifting from painstaking machining and welding to a world where engines and tanks emerge from printers as single, sculpted pieces of metal. Instead of treating 3D printing as a ...

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 ...

You’re exploring for precious metals on the moon but your lander’s engine needs a replacement part and that’s making it a little hard to concentrate. So, you do what anyone would do in the ...

NASA's Reactive Additive Manufacturing for the Fourth Industrial Revolution (RAMFIRE) project test-fired a 3D-printed engine ...

Printing a model jet engine is quite an accomplishment. But it wasn’t enough for [linus3d]. He wanted to redesign it to have a turbojet, an afterburner, and a variable exhaust nozzle. You can see how ...

The new John Deere tractors rolling off the manufacturing line in Mannheim, Germany, have a first for the company: a metal 3D-printed engine part. The global manufacturer of agricultural and turf ...

Students from the San Diego chapter of the University of California test-fire a new 3D-printed engine, making UC San Diego the very first university to “additively manufacture” a rocket engine. The ...
