WASP develops dual extrusion technology for combined earth and plastic 3D printing

Italian 3D printer manufacturer WASP has announced the development of a new dual extrusion technology capable of combining earth-based materials with plastic reinforcement in a single printing process. The company is currently seeking a patent for the approach, which aims to leverage the specific structural properties of both material types.

The system integrates two distinct printing processes: Liquid Deposition Modeling (LDM) and Fused Granulate Fabrication (FGF). By utilizing these methods in tandem, the printer can alternate between depositing an earth-based paste and applying thermoplastic material. According to WASP, this integration of plastic reinforcement is intended to enhance the structural capabilities of earth-based 3D printed objects.

The development of this dual extrusion capability represents a technical effort to merge natural, traditional construction materials with modern synthetic reinforcements, potentially expanding the range of applications for sustainable additive manufacturing.

GitLab issues security patch for critical remote code execution vulnerability

GitLab has issued security patches to address a high-impact vulnerability identified within its regular expression compiler. The flaw is classified as a maximum-severity issue, posing a significant risk to organizations utilizing the platform.

According to the security disclosure, the vulnerability could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on affected servers. By leveraging the flaw in the regular expression compiler, unauthorized parties may gain the ability to run commands on the underlying infrastructure of the GitLab instance.

GitLab advises administrators to apply the released security patches immediately to mitigate the risk of potential exploitation. Further technical details regarding the specific nature of the flaw are typically managed through the organization’s security update process to ensure system integrity and protection against active threats.

3Descu integrates AI assistants for automated 3D printing quotations

Romanian 3D printing service provider 3Descu has expanded its digital service capabilities by enabling users to obtain manufacturing quotations directly through major AI assistants. Announced on October 18, 2026, the new integration connects the company’s existing online pricing system with ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and VS Code.

The integration utilizes the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to bridge the gap between AI-driven engineering workflows and industrial manufacturing services. By leveraging this protocol, 3Descu allows engineers to receive immediate pricing estimates for their projects without needing to navigate away from their active AI development environments or coding interfaces.

This development represents an effort to streamline the procurement process in additive manufacturing by incorporating it into the tools already used by design and engineering professionals. By embedding 3D printing quote generation into AI assistants and integrated development environments (IDEs) like VS Code, the service aims to reduce the friction typically associated with obtaining production costs during the design phase.
