Advancements in soft robotics highlight dielectric elastomer and fluid actuators, yet lowering operating voltage remains a key challenge for real-world use.

The Kiel University scientist discusses how advanced materials processing is shaping medical manufacturing and improving drug performance.

Harvard engineers created rotational multimaterial 3D printing that embeds air channels in soft robotic parts, enabling hand-like motion without molds.

The team, based at MIT's Microsystems Technology Laboratories, demonstrated the system by printing an electric linear motor – the type that generates straight-line motion instead of ...

While 3D printing has mostly involved plastic so far, future materials, including one harder than steel, could make a huge difference in the technology.

In the past, this order would have taken at least a week to complete,” said the company’s foreign trade manager. “Now, a mobile phone is all we need.” From “Waiting for Emails” to “Instant Progress” ...

IMDEA and UPM have developed deformable woven nitinol metamaterials that combine metal strength with textile flexibility.

I love creating things on my 3D printer, but I’ve always hit a wall because I’m not an engineer and traditional 3D design software can be really tricky. In ...
