As the world of additive manufacturing continues to evolve, Lithoz, an Austrian leader in ceramic 3D printing, is poised to make a significant impact at the upcoming Formnext exhibition. The company will premiere its latest innovation—the CeraFab System S320, which promises to revolutionize the industrial production of mid-size technical ceramic parts.A Leap in Build Volume and EfficiencyThe CeraFab System S320 boasts a build platform and volume five times larger than its predecessor, the industry-proven CeraFab System S65. This remarkable enhancement positions the S320 as an ideal solution for efficient production processes in various industrial applications. Both machines utilize Lithography-based Ceramic Manufacturing (LCM), Lithoz’s proprietary ceramic DLP technology, which has garnered attention for its precision and versatility.Key Features of the CeraFab System S320Expanded Build Volume: With dimensions of 245 x 130 x 320 mm, the S320 allows for the maximum number of parts per print job, optimizing throughput and productivity.High Resolution: The printer offers a resolution of 60 µm, ensuring that even intricate designs are produced with exceptional detail.Advanced Projection System: Equipped with a 4K projection system, the S320 facilitates high-quality prints that meet the demanding standards of industrial applications.This new printer is specifically designed for the industrial serial production of mid-size ceramic components, complementing the ultra-precise capabilities of the CeraFab System S65.Showcasing Innovative Ceramic ApplicationsAt Formnext, visitors will not only see the CeraFab System S320 in action but will also have the opportunity to examine a range of impressive ceramic applications produced by the printer. Notable highlights include:Alumina Gas Distribution Ring: A key feature is the single segments of a 15” (380mm) diameter alumina gas distribution ring, developed in collaboration with Alumina Systems for the semiconductor manufacturing industry. This component showcases the effectiveness of LCM technology, allowing for a lightweight and thin-walled structure that outperforms traditional manufacturing methods.Intricate Casting Cores: The S320 will also print complex casting cores, essential for creating highly efficient turbine blades and advanced industrial filter devices. These parts are critical for enhancing performance in various sectors, including aerospace and energy.Pioneering Advancements in Medical ApplicationsIn addition to industrial applications, Lithoz has made strides in the field of medicine and dentistry. A highlight at Formnext will be the display of a 3D-printed subperiosteal jaw implant, made from zirconia. This groundbreaking device was successfully implanted earlier this year, marking a significant milestone in surgical history. Visitors will have a rare chance to see this innovation up close, underscoring Lithoz’s commitment to advancing healthcare through ceramic 3D printing.Visit Lithoz at FormnextFor those attending Formnext, the CeraFab System S320 will be featured at Lithoz's Stand 11.1 C49. The premiere of this advanced ceramic 3D printer not only showcases Lithoz's technological advancements but also highlights the growing importance of ceramic materials in various industries.As the demand for precision and efficiency in manufacturing continues to rise, the CeraFab System S320 stands out as a versatile solution capable of meeting these challenges. Lithoz’s innovative approach promises to push the boundaries of what is possible in ceramic 3D printing, paving the way for new applications and advancements in the field.Stay tuned for updates and insights from Formnext as Lithoz continues to lead the charge in ceramic additive manufacturing
