The more cost effective the prototyping process is, the more and easier it can be to implement it into the design process. 3D printing will become a crucial factor in increasing the rate of innovation, and those companies that master the use pre-assembly for prototyping will have a clear advantage.
Read moreIntegrating Functional Design into 3D Printing for Prototypes
Functional design is a simple concept that has large implications when combined with 3D printing. The goal is to simply design modularly so that each individual component serves a specific, individual function. It is very similar to many agile practices that are used in programming and management to ensure that all development goals are in small manageable pieces with potential to test and receive feedback quickly.

In an exclusive interview with 3YOURMIND, Meltwerk the Berlin based company founded in 2015 under the brand Trinckle3D, explain the reasons behind their production decisions that support their main mission, to break the barrier between ordinary people and 3D Printing.
Read morePolymers for Apium's FFF 3D Printing
“High-performance polymers are more difficult to print but can be applied in various industrial applications in the fields of prototyping, R&D, individual parts or small batches." Apium is one of 3YOURMIND industrial 3D printing services. The company’s application researcher, Philipp Renner, provides insights into their technology, their material selection and mechanical properties in an exclusive interview.

Blazing Sorbets is unique because of their innovative formula to freeze alcohol. Their patented production process allowed them to commercialize frozen cocktails that keep the same percentage of alcohol (11%-18%) as the original one. Their packaging which was prototyped using 3D printing services on 3YOURMIND is the key component to marketing the product and maintaining the frozen cocktail.

Meshify is a software tool which enables designs that take full advantage of 3D printing and create something that’s never been available before. The secret of Meshify’s successes lies in their innovative algorithms that create structures with significantly less material. This has a significant impact on 3D printing, where material is in direct proportion to cost and production time. Over the past few years they have developed advanced processes to reduce the material while maintaining the strength of industrial components.

How 3D printing technology is adapted for use in space? "Made In Space is working on expanding this technology to other realms of on orbit manufacturing, including the construction of large-scale structures in free space by Archinaut." During an exclusive interview with 3YOURMIND Made in Space's Product Strategist, Harrison Pitman gave us insight to Zero Gravity production.
Read moreTop 3D printing innovators meet in Berlin
Almost 2 years ago, the Berliner 3D-Druck Netzwerk was founded as a partnership between Berlin Partner für Wirtschaft und Technologie GmbH and 3YOURMIND GmbH. The network has grown to be a meeting point for over 150 3D printing enthusiasts attending each event. There are few places where so many companies working on the cusp of innovation exchange ideas and momentum.
Read moreHow Do Space Companies Benefit from 3D Printing?
In the past few years, we have witnessed the private sector entering the 3D Printing industry, using the technology to gain a more competitive edge with smaller series of production for the iterative development of their new spacecraft. They can build reliable, usable prototypes that allow them to optimize functionality, while producing an entirely new class of efficient vehicles.
