Lithography Based Ceramic Manufacturing

Alumina toughened zirconia is a very interesting material for medical.
Lithography based ceramic manufacturing. Lithography based additive manufacturing technology is a layered manufacturing approach where liquid photopolymerizable resins are solidified with ultraviolet visible or infrared light. Ceramic parts manufactured by lithography based ceramic manufacturing lcm excel in resolution and surface quality. The lithography based ceramic manufacturing technology lcm an enhancement of dlp commercialized by lithoz gmbh is an am process for high performance and nearly dense ceramics with a high surface quality and a high resolution 635 dpi. Additive manufacturing techniques allow the preparation of tailor made structures for specific reactions or applications with a high degree of freedom concerning the design.
Lithography based ceramic manufacturing lcm for example has a high resolution but still a limited material portfolio. Using a system based on digital mirror devices photopolymers can be exposed selectively in order to build parts with defined geometries. From green body to precision work of art. The material for lcm is a photosensitive ceramic particle filled slurry which.
The technology was initially developed at tu vienna more than a decade ago in 2006 by the same engineers who would go on to found lithoz in 2011.
