We caught up with a professional 3D printer maintenance manager to understand his thoughts on repairing several types of 3D printers in a busy fabrication lab.
Aurora Labs has been experimenting with using VR for working with their metal 3D printer. We speculate on how this could work.
There is a fascinating origin story behind RPS’ NEO 800 industrial SLA 3D printer that ensures the device is highly reliable and produces excellent quality prints.
A lot goes into the business of contract manufacturing, and a recent visit to Stratasys Direct Manufacturing highlighted some major considerations.
The ZCatch nozzle removal tool should be a tool found in every 3D printer operator’s toolbox.
Do you know how to maintain your 3D printer?
Purchasing 3D printing equipment can be a costly affair, but sometimes it’s actually far more expensive than you first thought.
This is an entry in our 3D Print Learning Series, focusing on 3D printer maintenance.
Stratasys announced a deal with Siemens for 3D printing, but I think there is much more behind this arrangement.
This week’s selection is the practical “Maintaining and Troubleshooting Your 3D Printer” by Charles Bell.
An increasing number of manufacturers offer longer-term maintenance plans, but do you need one?
While there are many prints emerging from 3D printers, there is usually insufficient maintenance being performed on machines.
The truth with a desktop 3D printer is that you will definitely be performing service on it. But there’s one easy technique you must master.
For those readers who have a 3D printer, how often do you perform maintenance on it? Oh, you don’t? Watch out for problems if so.

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.
