In 3D printing, we often talk about leveling the print bed, although that’s not an accurate term. A bed that is level in our terms presents a flat surface that is parallel to the path of the print ...

Manually leveling your 3D printer’s bed can sometimes be confusing, especially if you rely on vague instructions. Many people struggle with the “paper method,” which requires adjusting the bed's ...

FDM 3D printing has gone beyond prototyping and is being used as a production tool by many companies. However, conventional printers still require an operation to pop the finished part of the bed and ...

Quite often when objects are being 3D printed, they have to include supportive structures that are subsequently cut off and discarded. A new print bed, however, is designed to minimize or even ...

The Magician X is a new affordable 3D printer with a number of useful features including a self-levelling print bed making it easy to make sure you produce perfect prints every time. Other features ...

Researchers have improved flaw detection to increase confidence in metal parts that are 3D-printed using laser powder bed fusion. Researchers at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National ...
