Top 1: 3D printing trends of 2019

The question of: What will be the 3D printing trends of 2019, has probably already been asked by many in the industry. In this video Materialise explains what the upcoming trends of 3D technologies next year will be. Among them, there is a growth in the use of polymers with a sustained research on plastic materials for FDM 3D printing. The company is also convinced that governments will be more and more involved in the sector and will eventually be able to regulate it. Find all the 3D printing trends of 2019 in the video.

Top 2: First 3D printing on British ops

3D technology is know for its rapid production and can accelerate construction stages. In South Sudan, a team of engineers involved in a UN-mandated mission is building a hospital to better treat the war-wounded. While their supply of parts was very limited and slow, they have now turned to a Lulzbot Taz 6 3D printer. This way they can create all kinds of useful parts for building construction. For example, they created some useful components for the piping system. This is not the first time 3D printing have been used to help in a crises and probably won’t be the last.
