Lithoz Combine Metal & Ceramic By Multi-material 3D Printingj And Join At RAPID TCT
The Lithoz CeraFab Multi 2M30 is a major keystone of a new era in developing 3D-printed multi-material and functionally graded components.
As a true technological innovation, it makes the vision of 3D printing metal and ceramic combined components with complex geometries a reality. This powerful 3D printer is capable of combining different materials, such as ceramic with metal or different ceramics, in one single functional part - and even within one single printed layer.
Not only does the open system allow for the development of own materials, but developers can even integrate additional processes (i.e. ink jetting, coating) to expand the CeraFab Multi 2M30’s range of capabilities. In just one print run, entirely opposing material properties can be flexibly and functionally combined, including conductive and insulating properties, opening the door to the future of multi-material 3D printing and the entire ceramic industry.

Lithoz is the world market and technology leader in additive manufacturing systems for advanced technical ceramics. Lithoz CeraFab 3D printers use powerful lithography-based ceramic manufacturing (LCM) technology to deliver the quality, reliability, and repeatability needed for the serial production of highly complex and accurate ceramic parts. Advanced ceramic materials offer better performance in extreme environments where traditional plastics or metals reach their limits, thanks to their excellent dimensional stability, wear resistance, and electrical insulation, as well as the ability to withstand extreme heat, pressure, and harsh chemical environments. With a Lithoz 3D printing system, it is possible to rapidly and independently manufacture a wide variety of ceramics including alumina, zirconia, silicon nitride, and silica-based materials, for applications including structural parts, insulators, combustion lattices, catalyst supports, and casting cores. Lithoz America, LLC offers machine sales, application support, and custom material development from our Troy, NY location.
