In a new study by a pair of Utrecht University human geographers, it seems that countries adopting technologies are becoming more competitive with traditional manufacturing economies, especially in exports. Their main argument is that lowers some of the barriers that have made it hard for developing economies to build their own strong manufacturing industries.

The University of Utrecht: “3D Printing Could Change Who Gets to Become a Manufacturing Power” - 3DPrint.com | Additive Manufacturing Business For decades, manufacturing has mostly been controlled by countries with huge factories, lower labor costs, and industrial systems that took years, sometimes decades, to build. But Utrecht University human geographers...

In the latest consolidation move for the industry, Stratasys will purchase Markforged from Nano Dimension in an all-cash deal valued at $42.5 million. In the acquisition, Stratasys will get everything, with the exception of Markforged’s metal binder jetting (MBJ) business. Matt Kremenetsky analyzes the deal.

Analysis: Stratasys Acquires Markforged - 3DPrint.com | Additive Manufacturing Business A very long time ago, in 2023, the additive manufacturing (AM) industry was enraptured over the attempts by a large chunk of its publicly traded original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to...

YouTube channel It's Triggy showcases engineering and how-to videos, and recently turned its sights on low-cost medical devices. After discovering a commercially available, $18,000 multi-channel pipette system, Triggy used to make one for just $250 in parts. Joris Peels reports.

A Rotating Detonation Rocket Engine (RDRE) burns propellant in a ring-shaped combustion chamber, where a continuous supersonic wave detonation is propagated. These engines often use components to reduce weight, optimize performance, and improve work. Students from ETH Zürich used to make prototype injectors for their own RDRE.
