What if the future of precision mechanics didn’t rely on massive manufacturing plants or multimillion-dollar R&D budgets, but instead emerged from a 3D printer on a hobbyist’s workbench? That’s ...

3D printed gearboxes are great for experimental designs, but due to roughness and inaccuracies in the printed surfaces, they can wear quickly and be rather noisy. As a possible alternative, [Resetman] ...

3D printers are good for a lot of things, but making parts for power transmission doesn’t seem to be one of them. Oh sure, some light-duty gears and timing belt sprockets will work just fine when ...

Topology optimization is rapidly gaining popularity in the world of engineering, particularly in 3D printing, and is known for its distinct, almost organic-looking shapes. Now, one car company is ...

The core of Berkeley Humanoid Lite's design is a modular 3D-printed gearbox for the actuators and robot body. All other components can be sourced from widely available e-commerce platforms or ...

Atherton Bikes is working on a 3D-printed DH prototype that could shake up one of the first bikes they ever made – a new gearbox-driven A.200.G. There aren’t many are now quite a few more concrete ...

Speaking at a conference in October, Nike COO Erik Sprunk said that we are not that far away from a future when shoes can be printed right in someone's home. However, 3D printing and its potential ...

Deutsche Bahn is celebrating ten years of 3D printing, showing how the technology has moved from experimental use to supply ...
