In order to inspire and teach students who aim for a career in the printing industry, Canon Solutions America has expanded their university inkjet program to Rochester Institute of Technology. Read more to find out details on how the course went and what students say about it.
German car manufacturer Volkswagen has announced plans to use binder jet (BJT) 3D printing to manufacture car components at its main plant in Wolfsburg, Germany, supposedly becoming the first car maker to apply the Additive Manufacturing technology in its production method.
In a new research study, North Carolina State University (NC State) scientists demonstrated they could print sheets of electrically conductive ink on polyester fabric to manufacture an e-textile that could be utilized in the design of future wearable devices.
A study by the Saxon Institute for the Printing Industry (SID) and Darmstadt Technical University has looked at the consequences of using UV inks in sheetfed offset printing. The results show that a considerable proportion of the print products produced in UV offset printing are not deinkable. Here's why.

Education officials in Malawi are thrilled: The world's first school has been printed in their country. How 3D printing can enable building 36 classrooms in just 10 years.
Production runs with hundreds of thousands of units made from a single setup are well known to be cost-effective. Once the design and equipment for printing are set up, the production is more efficient in manufacturing a larger number of units at once. This field is continuously changing with new modern digital production methods. That is why it is worth to take a look at the potential this opens up for the packaging industry.
