Glass 3D printing breaks temperature barriers with 250°C processes, enabling custom eyewear and DIY optical components beyond ...

In contrast to the success of their molten-plastic cousins, paste extrusion 3D printers have never really attained much popularity. This is shame because, as the [Hand and Machine] research group at ...

The types of materials produced a very precise and very small, with the typical 3D printed glass sample being just 14 millimeters long. The material used – chalcogenide glass – is a type of glass ...

Researchers have developed the first binder-free method for 3D printing glass, using light to trigger a chemical reaction that directly forms silica structures without the need for organic additives ...

Researchers pioneer binder-free 3D printing of glass, using light to form precise silica structures for optics, medicine, and microfluidics. (Nanowerk News) Glassmaking has always been inseparable ...

A new process developed by researchers in Germany allows for the 3D printing of glass from pure silicon dioxide without the need for sintering. The invention paves the way for the printing of glass ...

Glass is increasingly being used in fiber optics, consumer electronics and microfluidics for “lab-on-a-chip” devices. Unfortunately, traditional glassmaking can be costly and slow, and 3D-printed ...

D printing is getting less finicky in 2026. New materials, machines, and software are cutting setup times and making ...
