How can you produce a magnet with exactly the right magnetic field? A research team now has a solution: for the first time, they have created magnets with a 3D printer. Today, manufacturing strong ...

Compared with the very early days of 3D printing, it’s now possible to use additive manufacturing to print using an extraordinary breadth of materials. One filament type which has remained largely ...

There is virtually no limit to the items that can be produced with 3D-printing technology these days, and now researchers at the US Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have ...

This is magic, big news, both, or neither. It’s so exciting to see magnets behave in this bizarre and wonderful way that we think it’s hard to forecast where this will go. Shown above is a pair of ...

Ongoing research at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory yields 3D-printed permanent magnets that outperform bonded magnets built using traditional techniques, while also ...

This is magic, big news, both, or neither. It’s so exciting to see magnets behave in this bizarre and wonderful way that we think it’s hard to forecast where this will go. Shown above is a pair of ...

Recorded on March 29, 2014. Outside the bustle of SXSW was a wall painted with iron-filing paint primer. The owner works for Correlated Magnetic Research (CMR) and was demoing their newest consumer ...
