The fusionX extruder, created by Noztek, is acknowledged as one of the leading desktop single screw mixing extruders in the world.. Following a thorough three-year development phase, this extruder has been engineered with exceptional precision, showcasing the highest level of Noztek’s manufacturing expertise.
Noztek’s innovative Infinity Print Bed Conveyor is set to revolutionize robotic 3D printing. It features both print and eject options, along with a continuous printing capability at a 45-degree angle. This system can operate continuously, 24/7, producing thousands of items from a variety of advanced materials, including carbon, Kevlar composites and other specialized thermoplastics.
The future of pharmacuetical manufacturing will be transfromed by new deleopment in 3D printing.FDM technology has the advantages of cost and the ability to print patient taylored dose formulations. Click to view.
Conductive and stretchable filaments are crucial for advancing additive manufacturing, particularly in flexible electronics. However, existing conductive filaments suffer from limitations in conductivity and stretchability. To overcome these challenges, this study presents a highly conductive and stretchable filament for material extrusion type 3D printing.

Dental caries is one of the most widespread chronic infectious diseases in the world. It is mainly caused by the
production of acid in the biofilm from the bacterial metabolism of carbohydrates. Nowadays, the prevention of
caries is mainly based on the use of topical formulations containing fluoride. However, effective fluoride sup-
plementation may not be sufficient in high-risk individuals,
Three-dimensional (3D) printing is a technology that, for a multitude of raw materials, can be used in the production of complex structures. Many of the materials that currently dominate 3D printing (e.g. titanium, steel, plastics, and concrete) have issues with high costs and environmental sustainability. Wood powder is a widely available and renewable lignocellulosic material that, when used as a fibre component, can reduce the cost of 3D printed products.

The advantage of mesophase pitch-based carbon fibres is their high modulus, but pitch-based carbon fibres and precursors are very brittle. This paper reports the development of a unique manufacturing method using a blend of pitch and linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) from which it is possible to obtain precursors that are less brittle than neat pitch fibres. This study reports on the structure and properties of pitch and LLDPE blend precursors with LLDPE content ranging from 5 wt% to 20 wt%.

Desktop 3D printing allows anyone to transform ideas into tangible products in a matter of hours. One couple, Fabian and Jennifer, gave the term “desktop” a twist and took their Ultimaker Original out for a spin in their mini-van to make a better world.
This study presents a comprehensive and integrated workflow for fabricating bioinspired, macroporous 3D
scaffolds tailored for bone tissue engineering. Poly-(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) served as the base polymer, enriched
with nature-derived fillers such as sodium alginate and microcrystalline cellulose, along with bioactive nano-
hydroxyapatite ceramics, to enhance hydrophilicity, bioactivity, and cellular interactions.
Three-dimensional (3D) printing in the pharmaceutical field allows rapid manufacturing of a diverse range of pharmaceutical dosage forms, including personalized items. The application of this technology in dosage form manufacturing requires the judicious selection of excipients because the selected materials must be appropriate to the working principle of each technique.
