Top 5 Videos is back! This month, we’re starting with a 3DExplained on how (and why) you could automate your 3D print farms. Then, we shift our focus to design, with our second video spotlighting 3D printed outdoor furniture, and our third video exploring how a university in New Zealand is using 3D printing for architecture and sculptural art. Then, we have a 3Dnatives video on integrating AI and AM, and finally, we end with a video from Formlabs that compares the speed of FDM, SLA and SLS processes. As always, happy watching!
