3D printing

Scientists say a new innovation could have around two or three times better charging performance than conventional lithium-ion versions

A 3D printing machine that will produce smaller components for aircraft has secured a share of the funding

It will develop and demonstrate an integrated additive manufacturing process for novel high-performance blade designs for the future of large rotors

Equinor says digital solutions helped increase subsurface understanding, ensure more efficient start-up of wells, higher stable production and more efficient maintenance

The company says its Sustainable Impact programme has helped drive more than $900m of new revenue – a 35% increase year-on-year

For the first time, researchers have successfully printed the working parts of a lithium-ion device

It has been operating for more than 8,000 hours with no reported issues

Siemens believes 3D printing, also called Additive Manufacturing, opens up “new attractive prospects” in the manufacture of gas turbines

Siemens has produced what is claimed to be first 3D printed part for a nuclear power plant. The “industry breakthrough” follows the integration of 3D printing, also called additive manufacturing, as part of its digital services portfolio. The replacement part, produced fro the Krško nuclear power plant in Slovenia, is a metallic, 108mm-diameter impeller for […]

Businesses in the UK will benefit from a £14.7 million investment to develop 3D printing projects for the energy and healthcare industries. The Technology Strategy Board and Research Councils are investing £8.4 million for 18 research and development projects – which will last between one and three years – while the rest will be provided […]
