🛠️ How much of your product development process is still influenced by constraints that no longer exist?

Too often, parts are designed for machining, molding, or stamping first, and only later adapted for additive manufacturing. Sometimes that works. Sometimes it doesn't.

But when engineers know from the beginning that a part will be 3D printed, they can take advantage of design freedoms that simply aren't possible with traditional processes.

The result?
✅ Lighter parts
✅ Stronger parts
✅ More functional designs
✅ New possibilities that weren't previously manufacturable

As our CEO, John Kawola, recently discussed with https://t.co/kjdFwnrgyX, the future of engineering will likely be driven by a combination of additive manufacturing, generative design, and AI. Instead of designing around manufacturing constraints, engineers will increasingly define performance requirements and let advanced tools generate optimized solutions.

The companies that embrace "design for additive" will not just manufacture differently, but innovate differently.

For engineers working on high-precision applications, what design constraint do you encounter most often today?

🏆 Enabling TIME’s Best Inventions - one micron at a time.

The University of Tokyo’s lab-grown chicken “nugget,” named one of TIME’s Best Inventions of 2025, uses a micro-scale circulatory system to grow thicker, more structured tissue - moving cultured meat closer to real cuts.

That level of controlled microarchitecture was enabled by BMF's PµSL technology, making it possible to fabricate the precise, perfusable structures needed to support tissue at scale.

🎥 Live Webinar: Advancing Fiber Optics with Micro 3D Printing

Join Jason Bassi and Jake Collins of BMF for a deep dive into how micro-precision additive manufacturing is enabling engineers to design and fabricate parts that traditional manufacturing simply can’t achieve.

In this session, they’ll cover:
• How micro 3D printing achieves ±10 µm tolerances critical for fiber optic alignment
•Applications including precision fiber guides, insulators, and complex grommet geometries
•Advantages over traditional manufacturing, such as rapid prototyping and design freedom
•The role of micro 3D printing in advancing high-performance fiber optic communication systems

If you're exploring designs where size, precision, and complexity all matter, this session will provide practical insight into what’s possible with micro-precision technology.

🔬 Micro-Precision 3D Printing: Trends & Breakthroughs in Medical Device Manufacturing

Medical device design is evolving rapidly, and micro-precision additive manufacturing is playing a growing role in enabling next-generation innovation. A recent Today's Medical Developments Magazine article explores how ultra-high-resolution 3D printing is reshaping medical device workflows — with insights from BMF CEO John Kawola on where the technology is headed.

As John highlights, the ability to reliably print complex micro-scale features, tight tolerances, and enclosed internal geometries is changing what engineers can realistically design and manufacture. From microfluidics and implantable components to integrated sensing and diagnostic devices, micro-precision AM is helping teams move faster while reducing assembly complexity and development risk.

This shift isn’t just about making parts smaller — it’s about unlocking new functionality and enabling medical devices that weren’t previously feasible with traditional manufacturing.
