The printer will be used :
- for plastic 3D printings with the possibility of mixing 2 types of plastic (dual head)
- CNC cutting and engraving
- laser engraving and cutting
- thick paste printing
As we are always developing new experimental setups or adapting existing apparatus, 3D printing is a way to achieve quickly and easily prototypes and functional parts.
But also, 3D printing will be a way to develop new deposition and annealing techniques for glasses and polymers.
