3D PRINTING CERAMICS

Lithography-based Ceramic Manufacturing (LCM) is an additive manufacturing process that, as the name suggests, is based on the 3D printing process of stereolithography... The still young technology enables the production of high-resolution and detailed 3D objects with the desirable properties of technical ceramics... In contrast to 3D printing in plastics, ceramic components are produced in several stages. In order to be able to print objects in ceramics, a so-called green body is first produced using the stereolithography process. This consists of a mixture of ceramic powder and a light-sensitive monomer, which is worked into liquid slurry.
