#Researchers create revolutionary optical fiber 3d printing technique for telecom and datacom industries As we continue to see more developments being made towards advancing additive manufacturing technologies,
what the latest 3d printing technologies can do for them, it is hardly surprising that we hear about exciting new (bioprinted) medical innovations almost every week.
This time, a team of scientists from the University of Nottingham show off an amazing 3d printing achievement.
3d bioprinting is a hot topic in the field of tissue engineering. owever it usually requires a printing environment that isn't compatible with living cells
while 3d printing could be used to 3d print it in huge complex scaffolding structures. What more, the body temperature environment needed to manufacture this material means that production costs remain relatively low.
They will subsequently use 3d printing technology to create artificial meninges structures. Upon implantation the brain blood vessels crawl into the structures.
he said. he core membrane adopts the most advanced 3d printing based bio-regenerative medical platform,
the key difference between bio 3d printing and traditional printing is in the printhead used. here are two kinds of printhead used in bio 3d printing:
When printing out membranes, he says, the machine sprays out a fiber-like ink onto biological paper that simulates the collagen structures found in body.
In time, this will allow on-demand organ printing to take place. In case of the Redura membrane
and artificial skin, blood vessels and ligament, many of which rely on the exact same 3d printing technique. In short, they are laying the technical foundations necessary for future development of more complex and advanced 3d printed artificial tissues and organs.
and clinical resources to push 3d printing from biological tissue reconstruction all the way up to 3d printing of organ regeneration.

#Surgeons turn to 3d printing to help perform world first pediatric bilateral hand transplant in USA Although wee previously heard about the many remarkable instances where 3d printing has helped improve the quality of life for an individual thanks to its increased usage and acceptance in the medical industry,
none of the scenarios involved a surgical procedure as complicated as a hand transplant. Yet, thanks to a team of surgeons in Philadelphia, an 8-year-old boy can now throw the football thanks to a recent hand transplant that was made possible thanks to the aide of 3d printing.

#The Focus 3d printer Is multifaceted Portable , & Delicious? At the end of last year, Davide reported that a company called 3d By Flow was going to be releasing a 3d printer with all of the fixings for portability.
Later on, we got a sneak peek, through a story in The netherlands, that the printer would also be equipped to handle viscous materials, like food.
Now that printer has hit Kickstarter revealing its specs, pricing, name and All the printer from 3d By Flow,
called Focus, is indeed portable and, more than that, it designed to use a wide variety of materials,
The printer is designed to fold into a suitcase, weighing only 7 kg. The unfolding and setup process is meant only to take 20 seconds, with printing ready in just two minutes.
This is possible due to a lack of leveling or calibration as the printbed is fixed completely. An SD card reader allows for untethered printing,
though a USB capable allows for printing from a computer as well. The Focus also has bed a heat that can reach up to 100°C. And,
once you get printing, you should be able to achieve Z-axis resolutions of 5 microns, according to the company.
You can see the full specifications below: 3dbyflow has constructed already 20 printers and field tested them in various locations,
including the Albert Hejin supermarket, as previously noted. With a solid Kickstarter campaign, the company plans to both construct the Focus for all of their backers, before eventually launching a second printer for the healthcare industry, the MKB printer measuring at 50x50x50cm,
and a third specifically for chocolate. The early bird packages for the printer start at around $2,
200, increasing to about $2, 400 after that. Not a bad price for a compact and capable printer,
if it delivers on all of its promised specifications. I don like getting my hopes up in this industry anymore
but I definitely hopeful about this compact and versatile printer. Check out the Kickstarter page for more information and watch the video below c
