3DCeram’s C101 Easy ceramic 3D printer is designed for manufacturers looking to develop and scale up into industrial production. This smaller, lab version is well suited for development, prototyping and producing small series of small ceramic parts.
It is said the printer is easy to use, offering optimized accessibility thanks to its open design. Using stereolithography (laser) technology, all the parameters are opened for the customers to develop their materials and recipes.
It is also optimized for material consumption. Users can print with as little as 60 mL of ceramic to start a print or 10 mL with the SAM (Small Amount of Material) option. Powered by a cartridge, the machine has a build platform of 100 × 100 ×150 mm.
The company says the machine is easy to use and launch a run. The machine is equipped with a collecting support which enables the recycling of the unpolymerized ceramic. Also, the recycling cartridge is fixed on a support which is easily removed from its storage, while the support can be repositioned in its place and a production can be restarted.
The build platform has been designed to facilitate maintenance and cleaning in a few minutes so as not to lose time between 2 prints, 20 minutes when using the same ceramic material and 40 minutes if using another ceramic slurry.
