Here's how 3D printing makes the robots that make everything else One of the largest industrial robotics companies in the world demonstrates how rapid prototyping has already disrupted manufacturing.

Rapid growth in the 3D printing market is driven by increasing automation and demand for customized, efficient manufacturing solutions across industries. Robotic 3D printing systems facilitate the ...

But a forward-thinking approach to automation that relies on robots and 3D printing technologies has helped the family-owned company thrive in a shrinking labor market.

This approach, introduced in a paper published in Science Robotics, relies on a three-dimensional (3D) printing strategy that employs a newly formulated gel.

The normal process for creating something complex and mobile like a robot through 3D printing usually involves multiple print runs to make each component.

Robots are revolutionizing homebuilding with 3D printing technology. Could it save you money? Technology helps decrease rising cost of real estate ...

Prototyping robots is becoming much easier with 3D printing – and robots could use it themselves to make new body parts on the fly ...

By 3D printing and trialling multiple versions of the robot with different material combinations, the engineers realised a fully rigid model would jump higher but would be more likely to break and ...

Previously, 3D printing had only been done with solid materials. Printing with both materials allows for the faster creation of complex designs, lessening the time and expense required to make robots.
