Scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) have for the first time 3D-printed transparent glass at room temperature. This new 3D printing method can offer not only transparent ...

Researchers at MIT's Lincoln Laboratory have successfully 3D printed using a special type of glass-based filament they ...

Shapeways, the mail-order 3D printing shop, will now print your objects in glass. That's right: no longer will you need to walk to a tacky strip-mall store to buy a hideous butterfly-shaped ...

Glass powder doesn't readily absorb liquid, however, so the approach used with ceramic printing had to be radically altered. "Using our normal process to print objects produced gelatin-like parts ...

Glass filament for 3D printing has been around for a few years at this point, but truth be told, the stuff that they sell right now generally isn’t 100 percent glass. Regular glass isn’t ...

The 3D printer is controlled by the ThingMaker Design app that enables kids to alter and design a ... but will likely take a little longer to print more complex designs. Getting hands on with ...

3-D printed glass.. ptwo via Flickr. Three-dimensional printing brought significant and rapid changes to manufacturing, letting companies create customized objects like apparel and plane parts on ...

The heated printing head also retracts when the printer isn’t in use, so little kids won’t try to touch it and burn themselves. As far as it’s ease of use: The ThingMaker 3D is one of the mo ...

A hybrid organic-inorganic polymer resin enables the three-dimensional (3D) printing of nanoscale optical-grade glass at temperatures roughly half of what other approaches require, researchers report.

A new process enables printing of nanometer-scale quartz glass structures directly onto semiconductor chips. A hybrid organic-inorganic polymer resin is used as feedstock material for 3D printing ...
