3D printing is often viewed as an environmentally friendly manufacturing method because of its reduction in waste material. It’s also shaking up supply chains by allowing localization, consolidation, and reduced inventories. However, every manufacturing process has an environmental impact, and additive manufacturing is no exception. In this article, we’re going to look at the FFF…

This blog post delves into the different additive manufacturing processes and technologies to help you find the right one for your workflow. If you’re reading this, you probably already know what a 3D printer is (if you don’t, then read this article about 3D printing vs. injection molding). But do you understand the differences between the vast number of additive manufacturing processes, technologies, and…

San Francisco-based industrial design firm fuseproject is most widely known for its work in the consumer product space. However, during the COVID-19 pandemic, its design team came together to deliver a cost-effective, innovative, and downright good looking ventilator to combat the outbreak. Here's how they made it happen.

3D printing has come a long way from the early days of desktop figurines. As technology continues to evolve, the future brighter than ever.
Mechanical Engineering
Decidedly the least grounded profession in the field of engineering, aerospace engineers examine our relationship with the world above us. Since the field’s official 1958 emergence, engineers have helped humans travel — commercially, militarily, and exploratively. Aerospace industry advancements have improved how quickly, safely, and efficiently this has been made possible. They have also paved…

As part of the December 2020 update of Fusion 360, we delivered a hidden gift just in time for the holidays: a new method for generating additive manufacturing outcomes. Internally, we call this project Additive 2.0, and it is part of our Experimental Generative Solvers and Features preview. This new method should go a long way to improve the shape quality and printability of the outcomes compared to…
