„Ceramic AM enables 500 mm dual-channel for high-speed PEALD and ALE in the same chamber“
As semiconductor manufacturers move towards larger substrates and faster atomic-scale processes, the components inside wafer production tools must scale up without compromising precision. Plasway-Technologies, Alumina Systems and Lithoz have developed a 500 mm dual-channel alumina gas distribution ring for Plasway-Technologies’ FAST Atomic Layering Process (FALP) platform. Produced using Lithoz’s ceramic Additive Manufacturing, the ring enables …
„How LCM enabled a monolithic ceramic gyroid that delivers five times the power-to-weight ratio of conventional solid oxide fuel cells“
…And why that changes the equation for hydrogen propulsion. Read the full story here!
„How a collaboration between KLS Martin and Lithoz led to hundreds of patient-specific ceramic implants“
Frank Reinauer, Mechanical Engineer at KLS Martin traces the company’s path from early resin prototyping to a DICOM-based surgical planning platform and a double-digit growth ceramic implant line The origin story of KLS Martin’s ceramic additive manufacturing program begins in a Viennese pizzeria. It was there, over 12 years ago, that Frank Reinauer, Mechanical Engineer …
„Cleaner semiconductor etching: Bosch Advanced Ceramics‘ two-part AM injector produced with Lithoz technology“
Semiconductor manufacturers increasingly rely on components that can withstand extreme plasma environments while delivering tighter process control and near-zero contamination. To meet these demands, Bosch Advanced Ceramics and Lithoz have transformed a previously two-part injector design into a fully integrated single ceramic component using ceramic Additive Manufacturing. By pairing high-purity alumina with precision AM technology,complex …
Multi-Material Printing of Lightweight Porous-dense Ceramic Components Showing Improved Damage Tolerance via LCM
„How can multi-material 3D printing contribute to improve damage tolerance in technical ceramics? The answer lies in a selective management of porous areas within the same functional part, as the controlled lowering of density in exactly defined regions has proven to strongly influence the behaviour of crack propagation. This has been made possible by the …
Ceramic precision meets analogue performance: How Additive Manufacturing enables design freedom in high-end audio
There is a beauty in ceramics that has captivated us for thousands of years. Today, Additive Manufacturing (AM) is giving this material class renewed appeal by enabling the creation of forms previously impossible to produce, while preserving the mechanical, aesthetic and tactile qualities that make ceramics so valued. A new award-winning Hi-Fi turntable cartridge – …
