This week we found the top 5 videos about 3D printing and the way additive manufacturing is shaping our society. The technology has infiltrated many sectors, from medical to space! Check out our selection of the week to keep up with the innovations! This week we touch on the TripleCell technology from New Balance, a 3D printed shell for a tortoise and much more! If you enjoy these, you can view even more 3D printing videos on our Youtube channel. Hope you’ll enjoy and have a great Sunday!
Top 1: TripleCell is New Balance’s 3D printing platform
In collaboration with Formlabs, New Balance has launched a new 3D printing platform for its trainers that is called TripleCell. With this platform, the company based in Boston will release two trainers, the 990 Sport in June and the FuelCell Echo in September. Their technology should provide the same cushioning experience found in the classic trainer but it will be 10% lighter. Also, this solution allows for mass production of the trainers – a new trend in 3D printing has been to move away from simple prototyping to series production. Find out more below!
Top 2: 3D printed shell for tortoise
This is not the first time 3D printing technologies come to the help of injured animals. From 3D printed implants, prostheses and orthoses, these devices can suit every and any animal’s needs by being custom-made for them. Personalisation is one of the main benefits of 3D printing – it is easier and cost effective to adapt a model compared to other traditional manufacturing methods.
