The Metal R&D investments in developments of new ceramic materials for additive manufacturing will support ceramic 3d printing industry expansion. Tethon 3D and Canon Inc. have developed alumina ceramic powder, that enhances corrosion, wear, and thermal stress resistance properties of materials. Additionally, the technology enables users to produce complex geometries with a high dimensional accuracy of over 99%. However, availability of substitutes for various industries might hinder the product popularity in coming years.
Additive manufacturing of ceramics is gaining momentum across the globe owing to optimization of timing and material usage by this process. American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) has provided several standards for ensuring the tensile strength, elongation, and thermal properties of ceramic materials. Such standards ensure the safety of fabricated parts and thereby support the ceramic 3d printing industry growth over the forecast timeframe.
