New FilaDC i10 by SUNLU and INSLOGIC Rethinks Filament Storage
Moisture remains one of the leading causes of failed FDM prints, wasted filament, and nozzle clogs, yet the standard remedies haven’t moved much in years. Heated dryer boxes work but demand a constant cycle of drying, printing, and resealing that breaks down at any real volume, and they risk deforming temperature-sensitive materials over extended use. …

70kg vs 200kg: How a Printed Foam Shell Made an Ape Camper Road-Trip Possible
Italian rider Francesco Furlani has completed over 4,500-kilometer journey from Italy to Nordkapp, Norway’s North Cape, driving a three-wheeled Piaggio Ape TM 703 fitted with a camper body built entirely through large-format 3D printing. The shell weighs around 70 kilograms, compared with roughly 200 kilograms for a comparable fiberglass structure, a 130-kilogram difference that determined…
