In May #Zortrax decided to restructure everything. Now it published the plan. And the presented numbers are truly astonishing. There are millions of dollars to be made. And how? Well, that's the confusing part... They didn't really mentioned that... 3dprintingjournal.substack.c…

A week ago Bambu Lab has become Mr. Robot, and Stratasys has become E Corp. The 3D printees around the globe decided this cannot be questioned. But let’s leave that for the moment… 10 years ago, Stratasys sued Afinia - a very similar case... 3dprintingjournal.substack.c…

The global AM industry is experiencing one of the most significant crises in its 35-year history. While layoffs at companies like #DesktopMetal or #Velo3D were somewhat expected the news of layoffs at #Formlabs comes as a bit of a surprise: 3dprintingjournal.substack.c…

A few days ago it turned out that 3D Builder—a super simple and super efficient 3D modeling application by Microsoft that is now being phased out. But not only is 3D Builder disappearing—its clumsy successor, Paint 3D, is also being phased out.

I finished going through the descriptions of all 10 patents included in the @Stratasys vs @BambulabGlobal lawsuits. And I have to say in a few cases, I’m questioning whether those patents should have been granted at all. But a few others... Sorry Bambu Lab, it doesn’t look good.

For example, I wasn’t aware that Bre Pettis had already banned the use of video cameras in 3D printers back in 2012. The ban ("patent") has been in effect since October 2013. Funny, that this comes from a guy who once was all about open source...
