Ceramic 3D Printing Revolution: How Technical Ceramics Are Being Transformed by Additive Manufacturing
Honeywell Aerospace used 3D printed ceramic molds in May 2024 to cut turbine blade development from up to two years to eight weeks. Ceramic stereolithography and material extrusion can achieve near-full density after sintering, while binder jetting leaves up to 30% porosity. In 2024, SINTX and Prodways agreed to supply alumina, zirconia, and silica ceramics for aerospace. 3DCeram launched the AI-driven CERIA process control system in 2025.
