Your Walmart might be 3D printed — firm building more than a dozen 3D-printed Walmart expansions with concrete-printing robots

For years, 3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) has been an experimental novelty. Alquist 3D, based in Greeley, CO, is pushing the technology past the demonstration phase with their A1X, a robotic arm printer that lays down inch-thick layers at a whopping 200mm/s.

Researchers find a way to heat 3D printer filament using microwaves, enabling fusing circuits inside printed objects — tech supports precise heating down to the width of a human hair

Researchers from Rice University have developed new microwave technology giving 3D printers the ability to heat ink with extremely high precision. The new tech is already being used to develop new 3D-printed tech that would be impossible without it, and to improve 3D printing efficiency.
