„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 – …
Why ceramic 3D printing excels for fabricating earmoulds, and where does the opportunity lie?
If you’ve ever struggled to pick out a friend’s voice in a crowded room, imagine how much harder it is for someone with hearing loss. Conventional hearing aids often fall short — they can be affected by earwax buildup, discomfort, connectivity problems, and challenges with understanding speech in noisy environments. Surprisingly, one tiny component can …
„How can a 0.01% design improvement in 3D printed parts help save up to $240K/day in the semiconductor field? Lithoz discusses.“
“ALD rings are not necessarily the leading application of Additive Manufacturing (AM) in the semiconductor industry, but they are the most innovative,” Johannes Homa, CEO and founder of Lithoz, told 3D ADEPT Media. “Their significance lies in how well they demonstrate AM’s value in addressing key challenges of semiconductor fabrication.” That bold statement immediately raised …
„Inside Himed: From Coatings to Cutting-Edge Bioceramic Solutions by 3D Printing“
At AM Ceramics 2024 in Berlin, Craig Rosenblum (CR), President of Himed/US, gave a presentation on the great opportunities that ceramic 3D printing offers for bioceramics. Based on this presentation, Ceramic Applications got the opportunity to conduct an interview with Craig Rosenblum, in which he introduced Himed, its products and services. Himed develops bioceramic materials, …
