Categories Related to Ceramic 3D Printers
A 3D printer is a device that produces three-dimensional models by stacking sliced 2D cross sections one layer at a time based on design data such as 3D CAD.
A ceramic 3D printer is a type of 3D printer that uses ceramic, porcelain, glass, cement, or other inorganic compound materials as its primary printing materials.
There are other types of 3D printers, such as metal and plastic, but compared to metals and plastics, ceramic 3D printers have a wide range of applications because they can combine various elements and realize a wide range of properties. For this reason, demand for ceramic 3D printers has been increasing in recent years.
Ceramic 3D printers are used in various fields because they can produce parts with complex shapes and hollow structures that cannot be produced using conventional manufacturing methods. They are also suitable for prototyping.
In the manufacturing industry, 3D printers are used for prototyping and final product modeling when using ceramic parts as replacements for existing parts and for high-mix, small-lot production of custom parts; and in the decorative industry, for modeling complex and highly original designs.
Ceramic 3D printers are also used in the decorative industry to create intricate and creative designs.
There are various methods of creating ceramic parts and products with ceramic 3D printers. However, the following two methods are currently the most common:
The optical fabrication method is further divided into stereolithography (SLA), which uses a UV laser beam, and digital light processing (DLP), which uses a projector to apply UV light to the surface.
The optical fabrication method is suitable for manufacturing prototypes, jigs, and molds because of its high speed and high accuracy.
