U.S. scientists have invented 3D glass-Print Technology

Over the past few years, 3D printers much concern to the industry, the print process is not complicated. The operator needs to do 3D graphics digital files for the printer, the file will be cut into 2D cross-sections. Then, the printer will print out for each cross-section and finally put them to the top of the adhesive together to form a solid 3D objects. However, scientists have been unable to use the 3D printer in the glass. Because they have not found an effective way to ensure that the glass powder will absorb the adhesive. Fortunately, scientists at the University of Washington recently by adjusting the mix of glass powder and binder ratio and heating temperature, to solve this problem, so that the glass objects in 3D printing become possible.

    3D printing technology in the construction of glass and artistic field of endeavor. In the field of architecture, 3D printing technology to complete the model of fast printing, in order to help architects through the rapid test different types of glass, to determine which design best suited to a certain environment. An environmentalist, the glass can be printed in the old pattern, in order to achieve the recycling of glass. If the price is right, people will be able to produce their own glassware of.
