WEBINAR: Ceramic Additive Manufacturing at Industrial Scale: Use Cases, Design Guidelines, and Limitations

Technical ceramics offer unparalleled properties, from extreme heat resistance to exceptional corrosion protection. When combined with the design flexibility and precision of additive technologies, this material is becoming a indispensable for industries ranging from medical and aerospace to semiconductors.

Ceramic AM is increasingly used in industrial applications where conventional materials and manufacturing methods are not sufficient. However, to implement it successfully at industrial scale requires a solid understanding of design constraints, material behavior, and process capabilities. That’s why we hosted a webinar for engineers, designers, and technical decision-makers who are evaluating ceramic additive manufacturing for functional components in demanding environments.

In this webinar, we presented real-world use cases of additively manufactured technical ceramic components from industries such as semiconductor, medical devices, and machinery. Each example highlighted the initial engineering challenge, the design approach, and the resulting performance improvements. Based on these applications, we shared practical design guidelines for ceramic additive manufacturing, including key considerations related to geometry, tolerances, and material-specific behavior. In addition, we addressed the limitations of ceramic AM and discuss scenarios where its use does not provide a technical or economic advantage.
