We found the TOP 5 videos of the week about 3D printing and the way additive manufacturing is shaping and changing our society. This week we touch on 3D printed steak, autonomous 3D printed bus, Desktop Metal’s on-demand 3D printing process 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: Reinventing steak through 3D printing
At this week’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Nova Meat 3D printed a brand new kind of steak on its stand. It is made of rice protein, peas and seaweed fibre and is said to have the same texture as a traditional meat. The team cooked the printed steak in 3D and visitors could taste test it. Check out the video below to learn more!
Top 2: Parts on Demand
The U.S. Navy uses small desktop FDM 3D printers to create all kinds of everyday parts, tools and components. They started by creating door handles, they found the process quite easily, taking only 4 hours. Gradually, they realised that the process could go further, imagination being the only limit. Today, the 3D printers print in 3D the buttons of radios, vehicle parts, reticular structures of all kinds, etc. Find out more below!
