For the first time, researchers have successfully 3D printed chalcogenide glass, a unique material used to make optical components that operate at mid-infrared wavelengths. The ability to 3D print ...
ETH researchers used a 3D printing process to produce complex and highly porous glass objects. The basis for this is a special resin that can be cured with UV light.
We’re all familiar with FDM 3D printing, and some of the more well-heeled or adventurous among us may even have taken a faltering step into the world of SLA printers. But for most of us there… ...
In a paper published in 3D Printing and Additive Manufacturing, researchers Chikara Inamura, Michael Stern, Daniel Lizardo, ... MIT researchers are now 3D-printing glass. John Biggs.
We have trialled using recycled glass as a component of concrete for 3D printing. Concrete is made of a mix of cement, water, and aggregates such as sand. We trialled replacing up to 100% of the ...
This spring, students from majors across RIT received a first-hand look at the molten glass 3D printer’s capabilities. Stern is co-teaching a class with Lecturer Suzanne Peck, titled Digital Glass, ...
Using a 3D printer that works with molten glass, researchers forged LEGO-like glass bricks with a strength comparable to concrete. The bricks could have a role in circular construction in which ...
