A Japanese lab is investing some time in the possibilities of a 5-axis 3D printer. They show it printing using five axis as well as doing finish machining on a printed part. We’ve covered parts of why ...

Three-axis 3D printing has been with us long enough that everybody knows the limitations, but so far, adding extra axes has been very much a niche endeavor. [Daniel] at Fractal Robotics wants to ...

Two researchers at Penn State have created a new system for five-axis additive 3D-printing that reduces the amount and density of support materials needed for making printed objects. In a paper ...

Japanese-based equipment manufacturer and developer Enomoto Kogyo has this week unveiled a new 5-axis Hybrid 3D printer they have developed in collaboration with Shizuoka University of Art and Culture ...

Master’s Student Øyvind Kallevik Grutle at the University of Oslo has created a 5 axis 3D printer for his studies with the first prototype of the machine taking 2-3 months to build and design. After ...

Still upset about breaking the handle on your favorite mug? A 3D printer can make it as good as new, and thanks to researchers at the University of Southern California, the process is even easier now ...

The designers describe 5AXISMAKER as a "multi fabricator." You can "simply swap the tool head and it becomes a different type of machine. You could attach a 3D printing head and start printing objects ...
