American automaker Ford has teamed up with HP and three other companies to repurpose spent 3D printing raw materials such as powders and filaments. The new process converts the waste into material suitable for injection molding plastic parts for vehicles. In what Ford called an industry-first, the company is using the new technique to mass-produce fuel-line clips for its F-250 trucks.
