When seeing a story from MIT’s Lincoln Labs that promises 3D printing glass, our first reaction was that it might use some rare or novel chemicals, and certainly a super-high-tech printer ...
The 3D-printing of glass objects has been achieved before – we've seen it done by extruding molten glass, and even via a modern take on an ancient Egyptian technique. A new process developed at ...
Fast-forward a decade, and the world of 3D printing has evolved tremendously. Printers are faster, smarter, and more refined.
The The 3D-printing process allows makers to create fluted structures out of glass that would be difficult to shape using traditional glass-blowing techniques.
Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology unveiled a new 3D printing method on Friday that employs transparent glass as precursor instead of plastic. The method, called G3DP, works ...
Researchers have successfully 3D printed optical-quality glasses, on par with commercial glass products.
Researchers have developed the capability to use recycled glass in 3D printing, opening doors to a more environmentally sustainable way of building and construction.
Scientists have developed a novel way to 3D-print objects using glass, an advance that could be used to make very small optical components for complex computers. Researchers from Karlsruhe ...
3D printing requires more than a 3D printer and a PC. Follow along as Charles covers the typical tools needed to operate and maintain it.
