Prior to 2015, some groups found success 3D printing using glass powders. In the almost four years since then, what new advances have been made in glass 3D printing? From powder to molten glass In 2015, we reported on some of the first groups to premier 3D-glass-printing technologies. But for glass, you need temperatures well over a thousand degrees Celsius for melting to take place. For polymers, only a couple hundred degrees Celsius are required to initiate material melt. Two common AM methods, selective laser sintering and fused filament fabrication, both rely on raising the temperature to just under or over the starting material’s melting point so it can be molded into a desired form. Yet other forms of AM are far from reaching industrial capacity. Though additive manufacturing (AM) is still pitched as the up-and-coming technology in contrast to traditional subtractive manufacturing techniques, certain forms of AM-particularly metal AM-are fast approaching mainstream. Let us hear em up in the comment box.There have been multiple developments in glass 3D printing methods since MIT debuted its prototypes from project G3DP in 2015. All your comments and opinions are appreciated. Have something in mind related to web design, freelancing, and other awesome stuff? Let us know and maybe we’ll feature it on our next post.

Continue to empty your cup and learn new things in order to be grow and progress. Like Xiaowan and other thriving artists, we must always be hungry for innovations and look forward to exceed our present limitations in order to create something new and unique like these stunning spatial paintings. Without further ado, have fun in observing through these amazing works of art.

And as these layers are placed together, it forms a hologram-like effect that has a shifting perspective depending on the viewer’s position. As a result of this query, he created these spatial paintings wherein distorted figures are drawn with colored pencil per layer of each pane of glass. He protested on how the two-dimensional nature of traditional painting represents a subject in a three-dimensional space. Chinese painter Xia Xiaowan observed the emerging techniques of modern art and decided to construct his paintings to a whole new level.
