Crystal has been 3D-printed into vases, ... The forms are inspired by frost crystals with walls that are just 1.5-millimetre thick. "By printing crystal we can in effect print light, ...

A 3D-printing method generated a loong, or Chinese dragon, made of two different types of semiconducting crystals: one that fluoresces red (top right, as imaged with colour filter) and the other blue.

A nod to '90s nostalgia, STONEDALONE is a jewelry collection of 3D-printed mystical talismans. Brooklyn-based artist Wynn Mustin began this project not only to marry the past and present, but also ...

Krupped tells us that this project started with modelling the print in Solid Edge, a CAD programme from Siemens that we don’t see used too often by those featured in our 3D Print of the Day series.

The rounded crystals are produced using a technique called organic vapor jet printing, which is similar to the way a 3D printer works, but with a gas (boron subphthalocyanine chloride in this case ...

This 3D printer builds objects by melting a fine metal powder with a laser. First, the surface is coated with metal powder. Then, a high-power laser melts that powder in a particular pattern.

Rare crystal shape found to increase the strength of 3D-printed metal. ScienceDaily . Retrieved June 11, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2025 / 04 / 250407172912.htm ...

Quasicrystals increase the strength of 3D-printed aluminum, the researchers discovered, making it possible to use in lightweight, high-strength objects such as airplane parts.

The lasers in a 3D printer must raise the temperature much higher: above the metal’s boiling point of 2,470 degrees C. This changes a lot of the properties of the metal. In 2017, a team at HRL ...
