It’s wasn’t too many years ago that inspecting a bridge, evaluating safe passage, or planning a route took a brave soul to volunteer or a less brave soul to draw the short straw.
Charles R. Goulding and Alyssa Schneider discuss the use of drones in warehouses, and where 3D printing fits into this high-flying physical inventory approach.
It wasn’t too long ago when the concept of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and the capabilities of generative design seemed like some far off sci-fi future.
Charles Goulding, Preeti Sulibhavi, and Peter Favata of R&D Tax Savers explore 3D printing as an alternative to Chinese sourcing for drone components.
Could a drone use the Coandă Effect? With 3D printing, Tom Stanton was able to iterate through many designs to determine if this is possible.
Cameron Torti and Charles Goulding of R&D Tax Savers examine 3D printing’s impact on drones.
By itself, one isn’t all that impressive. But, bring enough of them together, and it’s certainly an impressive sight.
Just a possibly crazy idea, but why couldn’t we perform high resolution scans of humans using drones?
The US Army is conducting a test to investigate whether it is feasible to design and 3D print highly specific drone designs for specific missions.
FLYING-CAM began the close range aerial filming concept in the 1970s, leading the way with its Flying-Cam II.
Brazil’s most famous statue has been 3D scanned in incredible detail.
A new personal drone concept by Backcountry Drones makes heavy use of 3D printing.

Welcome to Fabbaloo, one of the world’s oldest online news sources for 3D printing news. We’ve been in operation since 2007, where we first started examining the state of 3D printers. These devices are now relatively common among some circles in today’s world, but years ago it was extremely rare to see a 3D printer or even a 3D printed object.
At that time it was challenging to find any 3D printing news, so we decided to make our own site that covered 3D printer news, and even associated technologies like 3D scanning and 3D modeling. Today it is common to find 3D printers in schools, workshops and makerspaces, and you probably have been using 3D printed objects without even knowing they were 3D printed.
Today’s industry has finally taken up the challenge by installing thousands of industrial 3D printers, each producing previously impossible 3D printed parts that make today’s society far more efficient. The aerospace industry in particular has been producing many 3D printed parts, some even for flight critical purposes.
If you want to learn about 3D printers, then there’s no better place than Fabbaloo’s 3D printer news to see the latest happenings.
