2, below). However, the knitting in this case — now commonly referred to as stitching or stitch-bonding — was not forming a 3D shape. But the quest for 3D preforms actually made from knitted stitches ...

it takes computer models of three-dimensional objects (in the form of 3D meshes), and automatically converts them into stitch-by-stitch instructions that allow computer-controlled knitting ...

That's because researchers at Carnegie Mellon University's Textile Lab have figured out how to translate 3D designs into stitch-by-stitch instructions for industrial knitting machines. The result ...

Carnegie Mellon researchers have created a method that generates knitting patterns for arbitrary 3D shapes, opening the possibility of “on-demand knitting.” Think 3D printing, but softer.

A prototype manufacturing machine developed at Carnegie Mellon University is transforming traditional textile fabrication into a new form of knitting that can create solid objects. Like a 3D ...

“Solid knitting is a new technique to fabricate dense, firm objects via knitting. The objects are built up layer by layer in ...

Add to that the power of social media, which allows patterns and designs to be shared much more easily and readily, and the potential of 3D knitting technology becomes clear. If I had to bet which ...

who spoke to the opportunities afforded by digital design and 3D knitting on Wednesday. “3D knitting as a method of manufacturing is an incredible platform to manufacture products with zero ...

Ford is introducing a new way of producing better car seat upholstery with the help of 3D knitting, a cutting edge technique that allows seamless seat covers and infinite personalization.

so why not 3D print yourself a machien to knit some socks instead? That’s precisely what [Joshua De Lisle] did. The sock knitting machine is a simple device, albeit one that takes up most of the ...
