This week, Chinese #3Dprinter manufacturer @QIDI_3dprinter launched its latest flagship system, the consumer-grade QIDI 2. With performance & hardware upgrades & support for multi-color #3Dprinting, the firm says the Q2 is beginner-friendly, but with industrial-grade performance.

There's only one #3Dprinted medication on the market, but this says more about lengthy approval processes than a lack of activity in pharmaceutical #3Dprinting. @DARPA has signed an agreement with @Aprecia3DP @Battelle as part of the Trump Administration's EQUIP-A-Pharma program.

Previously in his binder jet #3Dprinting series, @pilz looked at the potential staying power of binder jet firms, applications & parts, & a "collective delusion" that got us where we are. Now he discusses how the tech must change to meet the needs of manufacturing certain parts.

Inhalers are an essential tool for millions of people with asthma, but due to misuse, the dosage is often not enough. @kieluni researchers are using ultra-precise #3Dprinting to redesign the carriers inside dry-powder inhalers, with a goal of making drug delivery more effective.

In 2021, Singapore passed a law banning those without appropriate licenses from owning digital gun blueprints. But, the law only went into effect last month, so #AM service bureaus keep getting requests for #3Dprinted gun parts, as well as parts for vaping - outlawed since 2018.

The @uarizona Mach-X team was tasked by the @NCDMMnews to develop an alloy manufacturing method, using #3Dprinting & machine learning, for making critical, high-tolerance parts for hypersonic aircraft. They received a $5M US Army grant to help with their research.

What's holding back the scale-up of #3Dprinting in the US defense industrial base is policy, not technology or funding. @AmericaMakes, the original Manufacturing Innovation Institute, is one institution that exists mainly to address the problem. Matt shares his thoughts from MMX.

By next April, the UK Space Agency @spacegovuk will be absorbed into the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology @SciTechgovuk as part of a plan to cut bureaucracy, streamline oversight, & bring policy & delivery under one roof. This could impact #3Dprinting in space.
