What your process engineer actually checks

Locked, traceable lot chemistry

Every lot ships with a COA documenting PSD, sphericity, flow rate, apparent density, and full chemistry — and a lot number you can trace. Aerospace and medical teams reorder 4+ times without re-qualifying.

Qualified parameters, not just powder

Validated parameter sets for EOS M 290, Renishaw 500Q, SLM 280, and our own AO Metal LPBF ship with the order. Load the profile and hit density on the first build — no parameter-development burn.

A materials engineer on the line

Questions on ferrite content, flowability, recyclate ratios, or HIP response? A materials engineer answers directly — not a contact-form bot. Most replies in under 4 hours, NDA standard.

What you can make

Functional metal and ceramic parts 3D printed on the 3DCeram M.A.T.
Functional metal & ceramic parts produced on the M.A.T.

From dense stainless-steel and titanium components to silicon carbide, zirconia and alumina ceramics, the M.A.T. turns your CAD into real, load-bearing hardware — the kind of parts that used to require an outside service bureau or a powder-bed system you couldn’t justify. Prototype on Monday, iterate by Friday, and keep your IP in-house under NDA.

No laser. No loose powder. No powder room.

The M.A.T. prints bound feedstock — filament, pellets, or paste — in which metal or ceramic particles are held in a binder. There is no laser and no free-flowing reactive powder, so you skip the inert-gas handling, the powder room, and most of the safety overhead that keeps metal AM out of normal labs.

  M.A.T. (extrusion) Metal LPBF (laser powder bed)
Feedstock Bound filament / pellet / paste — safe to handle Loose, reactive metal powder
Hazards No laser, minimal PPE Class-4 laser, inert gas, powder room
Install Single-phase outlet, fits a lab 3-phase power, facility upgrades
Materials Metals + technical ceramics + silicone Metals only
Entry cost From $70,000 Typically $300k–$1M+

Proven maker — 3DCeram ceramics in orbit

18 mo

The M.A.T. comes from 3DCeram (Sinto) — the team that took newspace startup AnyWaves, a CNES (French space agency) spin-off, from a blank page to space-qualified zirconia ceramic antennas in 18 months, using the same technical-ceramic materials the M.A.T. runs. AnyWaves is now one of the world’s leading small-satellite antenna makers.

One machine, four tools

FFF head

Ceramic and metal filaments, with the reliability of fused-filament fabrication.

Direct Pellet Extrusion

Feeds pellets directly — lower feedstock cost, higher throughput for runs.

Paste / robocasting

Extrudes ceramic slurry or silicone for fine, complex geometries.

3-axis CNC

Green-machines parts before firing for a superior surface finish — in one setup.

Tune the inside, not just the outside

Because the M.A.T. deposits material instead of melting a powder bed, it is the only approach that lets you build parts with fully customizable infill — reinforce only where the load path needs it, and tune weight, strength, or material usage part by part.

Silicon carbide, zirconia, alumina: the hard, heat- and wear-resistant ceramics most desktop printers can’t touch. The M.A.T. shapes them green, then you debind and sinter to full function. Metals too — 316L, 17-4PH, titanium and copper — plus silicone via the paste head.

Compatible filaments and pellets ship with the printer, with datasheets and validated parameters on request. Need an alloy or ceramic that isn’t on the list? Custom filament and pellet development from your own powder is possible.

How the M.A.T. process works

  1. Print — deposit metal or ceramic feedstock via FFF, pellet, or paste extrusion.
  2. Green-machine (optional) — switch to the 3-axis CNC in the same setup to refine surfaces before firing.
  3. Debind — remove the binder from the printed green part.
  4. Sinter — densify under heat so particles fuse into a strong, fully functional part.

Complete your M.A.T. workflow

Print-ready ceramic and metal filaments matched to the M.A.T., plus the controlled-atmosphere oven for debinding and sintering.

Frequently asked questions

Can the M.A.T. really print metal and ceramic without a laser?
Yes. It extrudes bound feedstock — filament, pellets or paste — then you debind and sinter to full density. No laser, no loose reactive powder, no powder room.
Which materials can it run?
Metals (316L, 17-4PH, titanium, copper) and technical ceramics (zirconia, alumina, silicon carbide), plus silicone via the paste head. Custom filament/pellet development from your own powder is available.
Do I need special facilities or three-phase power?
No. The M.A.T. runs from a standard single-phase outlet and fits a lab or workshop. An integrated active-carbon filter keeps the work area clean — no special installation.
What is the build volume and lead time?
Build volume is 200 × 200 × 200 mm. Typical lead time is about 3 months; we confirm it with your quote.
Is financing available?
Yes — leasing and installment plans are available so you can spread the investment over time.
Can I see a sample before I buy?
We don’t print free giveaways, but we’ll print your actual part for a fee in your target material and review the results with you on a free capability call — so you decide with the part in hand.
What warranty and support come with it?
A 12-month manufacturer warranty, plus installation, operator training, service, spares and technical support from Additive Plus — the official 3DCeram representative in the United States.

Unedited feedback from customers who reorder 3DCeram M.A.T. — Metal & Ceramic 3D Printer.

★★★★★ 4.9 / 5 · 24 reviews
★★★★★

Same lot 4 times in a row. We stopped re-running parameter sweeps after the second order — density was identical to the first build.

MK
Marcus K. Process Engineer · Aerospace OEM
★★★★★

Asked about ferrite content on a Friday. A materials engineer answered Monday morning with actual data, not a sales pitch. That's why we keep ordering.

PS
Priya S. R&D Lead · Medical Devices
★★★★★

COA matches the bottle. PSD and flow are exactly what was on the sheet — we run it on a Renishaw 500Q and it hits density on the first try.
