12 most innovative 3D printing materials.

When it comes to 3D printing, it’s hard to ignore the various types of materials it leverages: plastics, metals, ceramics and etc. There are, however, plenty of “raw” materials that will leave you wondering: “how is this even possible?” In light of this, 3Dnatives has chosen 12 of the most unusual 3D printing materials, which will […]

Innovative wood-based materials for 3D printing

As an organic polymer, lignin plays an important role in providing rigid support for plants. It strengthens the cell walls of plants and causes them to turn woody (lignify) – a mechanism that helps plants to protect themselves against wind or pests. Lignin has traditionally been a waste product from paper manufacture. […]

3D printing post-processing

Post-processing is to 3D printing what clothes are to humans. You get the gist, right? 3D prints,more often than not, require various degrees of post-production treatment to be “presentable”. Whereas 3D printers using the same technology and marketed for about the same price usually do not vary much(theoretically) in terms […]
