Abstract

3D printing has played a prominent role in product development, through "wax" prototypes, by testing the different functions of the product, which allowed designers and companies to make changes in response to testing and evaluation processes so that it meets the needs of users and is compatible with market requirements.
The wax model implemented by 3D printing plays a marginal role in manufacturing the glass product, as glass relies on 3D printing in designing and producing metal molds used in forming the glass, without exploiting the wax model in the production process.

Hence, the problem of the research lies in revealing the possibility of employing the "wax model" implemented by 3D printing in producing and shaping glass.

Accordingly, the research aimed to employ the wax model implemented by 3D printing in producing and shaping glass.

Hence, the research hypothesis came that employing the "wax model" implemented by 3D printing in producing and shaping glass contributes to producing complex products with repetitive and quantitative forms.

The research presented several main axes that tried to achieve the goal, as the first axis dealt with designing the initial model through 3D programs. In contrast, the second axis focused on studying 3D printing and its types, and the third axis focused on employing 3D printing in producing glass using different techniques through the wax model. Among the most important results of the research is the possibility of utilizing the wax model implemented by 3D printing in producing and shaping glass.
