In this experiment sunlight and sand are used as raw energy and material to produce glass objects using a 3D printing process, that combines natural energy and material with high-tech …

Kayser developed a manually operated solar 3D-printing machine, which he first tested in Morocco in 2011. Later that year, he completed a fully automated, computer-driven version, …

Solar Sintering is a technology that is particularly useful for crafting objects and at the large scale, structures, in dry environments using only sunlight and sand or regolith (rock dust).

German designer Markus Kayser has built a 3D-printing machine that uses sunlight and sand to make glass objects in the desert. Called The Solar Sinter, the device uses a large Fresnel lens …

In February 2011 Kayser tested his first manually-operated solar-sintering machine in the Moroccan desert. The results led to the development of the current larger and fully-automated …

Jun 24, 2011 · An MA Design Products student project, Solar Sinter is probably one of the most inspiring projects this year, aiming to raise questions about the future of manufacturing and …

This study investigates the decarbonisation potential of solar calcination and photovoltaics-based kiln electrification in clinker production. Optimisation models parametrised by process …
