3DCeram C101 HYBRID Multi-Material Ceramic SLA 3D Printer – Two Materials in One Layer | 100×100×150 mm
Multi-material ceramic SLA printer that prints two materials in the same layer — ceramic plus a second ceramic, metal or polymer — on a 3.9×3.9×5.9 in / 100×100×150 mm platform. It makes functionally graded and multi-material ceramic parts single-material printing can't. Full print → debind → co-sinter workflow supported by Additive Plus.

- Lead time: configured to order — material-pair & co-sinter support from California.
What your R&D team actually checks
Two materials in a single build
The HYBRID lays down two materials in the same layer — ceramic plus a second ceramic, metal or polymer. That is a capability single-material ceramic SLA simply doesn't have, and it's what makes functionally graded and multi-property parts possible.
A ceramics engineer on the line
Material-pair feasibility, shrinkage matching between the two materials, and debind/co-sinter parameter sets — plus a paid sample before you commit. Sub-4h reply, NDA standard, from a team that runs ceramic AM.
The 3DCeram C101 HYBRID is a multi-material ceramic SLA printer that can lay down two materials in the same layer — ceramic plus a second ceramic, metal or polymer — on a 3.9 × 3.9 × 5.9 in / 100 × 100 × 150 mm platform. It opens up functionally graded and multi-material ceramic parts that single-material printing can’t make. Additive Plus supports the full print → debind → co-sinter workflow around it.
Why multi-material teams choose the C101 HYBRID
One build, two materials — the capability that sets the HYBRID apart from single-material ceramic SLA.
Two materials in one layer
The HYBRID prints two materials simultaneously within the same layer — the core capability that unlocks parts a single-material process cannot build.
Ceramic + metal or polymer
The second material can be another ceramic, a metal or a polymer — enabling functionally graded structures, embedded features and multi-property parts.
Open-parameter R&D platform
Full parameter control on a compact laser SLA system — develop and qualify new multi-material combinations, not just run fixed recipes.
Compact, from 60 mL
Cartridges from 60 mL up to 920 mL and a small 100 × 100 × 150 mm platform keep experimental and precious materials economical per trial.
Print → debind → co-sinter: the multi-material workflow
A printed part is a “green” body, not a finished one — and with two materials, co-firing matters. Additive Plus supports all three steps.
Print the green part
The UV laser cures two materials layer by layer, 0.020–0.125 mm at a time, into a multi-material green body on the 100 × 100 × 150 mm platform.
Debind
The green part is cleaned of unpolymerised paste and thermally debound to remove the organic binder, leaving a fragile multi-material body ready for firing.
Co-sinter to density
The materials are co-sintered to near-full density. Matching shrinkage between the two materials is the key challenge — we help characterise and compensate it.

Materials & compatible ceramics
The C101 HYBRID runs 3DCeram’s technical-ceramic pastes and pairs a ceramic with a second ceramic, metal or polymer in the same layer. Each ceramic family targets a different property set. Additive Plus helps select a compatible material pair and shares the matching debind/co-sinter schedule.
| Ceramic | Key properties | Typical parts |
|---|---|---|
| Alumina (Al₂O₃) | High hardness, wear & corrosion resistance, electrical insulation, high service temperature | Wear parts, insulators, industrial components |
| Zirconia (ZrO₂) & 8Y | High strength & toughness; 8Y adds ionic conductivity & heat insulation | Medical & dental, solid-oxide fuel cells |
| Silicon nitride (Si₃N₄) | Excellent thermal-shock & wear resistance, low density, low thermal expansion | Bearings, high-temperature structural parts |
| Aluminium nitride (AlN) | High thermal conductivity with electrical insulation, good mechanical strength | Electronics, thermal-management substrates |
| Hydroxyapatite (HA) / TCP | Bioactive, resorbable, biocompatible | Bone substitutes, cranial & maxillofacial implants |
| Cordierite & silica-based | Low thermal expansion, thermal-shock resistant, low dielectric loss | Refractory & thermal components |

3DCeram develops and qualifies ceramics and material combinations on request — typically in 2–4 weeks. Tell us the two materials you want to combine.
From labs running multi-material ceramic AM
Unedited feedback from research and development leads.
Being able to place two materials in one layer let us build a property gradient we simply couldn't make any other way.
The hard part is shrinkage matching — Additive Plus walked us through characterising both materials before we committed.
A paid multi-material sample proved the concept worked before we spent capital. That de-risked the whole project.
