Recipients of America Makes’ EARTH project awards will explore sustainable approaches for reusing and recycling additive manufacturing materials and designs. Their initiatives are expected to make substantial contributions to reducing waste, conserving energy and mitigating carbon emissions

Australian startup Maple Glass Printing has developed a process for extruding glass into artwork, lab implements and architectural elements. Along the way, the company has also found more efficient ways of recycling this material.

3D printing enables sustainable production through recycled materials, end-of-product-life-cycle solutions, and helping to realize eco-friendly products.

Formnext 2023: ValCUN’s Minerva Printer for metal additive manufacturing enables metal to be deposited in a single-step process, using off-the-shelf metal as feedstock.

Additive manufacturing is often closely associated with sustainability, but why? And how can companies use AM to develop sustainable processes? Stephanie Hendrixson and Julia Hider discuss in this episode of AM Radio. 

The climate-neutral PA 1101 and carbon-reduced PA 2200 polymer materials are designed to increase production efficiency, while supporting more sustainable additive manufacturing.

6K Energy has created a sustainable process to produce new battery components, leveraging both domestic and recycled feedstock.

Continuum is contracting to secure some of the industry’s greenest sources for power and argon gas. When the entire combination of the new renewable energy sources are added with its proprietary process, the company anticipates a total energy consumption of nearly zero.

Assessing 3D printing as a sustainable manufacturing method is a complex problem. Dr. Tim Simpson and Stephanie Hendrixson discuss current research and future opportunities on AM Radio.

The ongoing conflict in Armenia has left many of its citizens sustaining injuries, especially the loss of limbs. With difficulty in accessing quality health care, many people have poorly fitted prosthetics. The solution lies in 3D modeling and printing customizable prosthetic case covers enabling better healing outcomes and comfort for patients.
