Parked in the RIT glass hot shop, a first-of-its-kind device carries out a process sitting at the intersection of material, machine and maker. The technological marvel is the world’s first molten ...

A dead mosquito's feeding tube costs about 80 cents. A commercial glass nozzle for high-resolution 3D printing runs around ...

A research team has used advanced 3D printing techniques to develop low-temperature, "sinterless" silica glass. They ...

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 ...

Engineers developed a new kind of reconfigurable masonry made from 3D-printed, recycled glass. The bricks could be reused many times over in building facades and internal walls. What if construction ...

If you haven’t noticed, diode laser engraver/cutters have been getting more powerful lately. [Cranktown City] was playing with an Atomstack 20 watt laser and wondered if it would sinter sand into ...

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 of ...
