The glass printers have many practical applications including the production of automobile components and for architecture.
There are only two Dip-Tech AR18000 printers in existence and they are owned and operated by sedak GmbH & Co. KG of Germany and Tianjin Northglass Industrial Co., Ltd in China. The printers were commissioned for special architectural projects that will feature digitally printed large-format glass panels.
Dip-Tech’s CEO Yariv Matzliach announced the honor at the Glasstec 2014 show in Dusseldorf, Germany. He said, “It is a great honor for Dip-Tech to join the elite group of achievers named as Guinness World Record title holders. We share our celebration with sedak and Tianjin Northglass, the pioneering first users of these record-breaking printers.”
He continued, “At Dip-Tech, we continue opening new frontiers that change the way glass fabricators work and create new possibilities for the world of design. Achieving this Guinness World Record is an exciting step as we move forward in creating the never-before possible”.
