The best way to simplify a complex model for 3D printing is to reduce its triangle mesh. Sometimes called decimating, this process takes away a lot of the complex geometry that is great to have ...

Most people buying 3D printers for the first time don't know that specific software is also needed to make a 3D model ready for printing.

Are you curious how a single image can transform into a 3D model in seconds? Microsoft’s Copilot 3D tool can make it possible ...

Some readers may consider that a revolting oversimplification, but it is a helpful one to make a point about how 3D scanning, 3D printing, and CAD work do (and don’t) work together.

The rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in 3D modeling has sparked both excitement and skepticism, particularly when it comes to its role in creating 3D meshes ready for printing.

O ver recent years, the U.S. Army has been steadily integrating both drones and 3D printing into its arsenal. This ...

Are you looking for 3D printer files for cool things to 3D print? Free 3D models of useful and practical (and some whimsical) 3D printable objects? Here are my favorites.

While there are 3D printers that actually will create chocolate creations and three-dimensional models of the Captain's chair, 3D printing does have production constraints and design limitations.
