A materials engineer on the line
Shrinkage map for your ceramic and geometry, debind and sinter parameters, and a paid sample run before you commit. Sub-4h reply, NDA standard — we run ceramic AM, not a remote ticket queue.
About this product
The 3DCeram C3601 Ultimate is the largest laser-SLA ceramic 3D printer in the 3DCeram line — a 600×600×300 mm build envelope driven by four UV lasers, built for serial production of dense technical-ceramic parts.
Why engineers choose the C3601 Ultimate
Serial-scale ceramic stereolithography — throughput, envelope and material freedom in one machine.
Four-laser throughput
Four 405 nm UV lasers, ~60 µm spot, polymerize different zones of the build in parallel — the serial-production speed SLA ceramics usually lack.
Largest ceramic envelope
600×600×300 mm (23.6×23.6×11.8 in) — the biggest plate in the 3DCeram range. Print one large part or nest many small ones per build.
Support-free, less cleaning
Top-down “free link” stereolithography builds without supports — less post-print cleaning, lower cost per part, fewer geometry limits.
Open materials, ≤2 µm finish
Open parameter architecture runs any qualified 3DMix ceramic paste. Surface roughness stays under 2 µm; machining is possible at any intermediate stage.
The full ceramic workflow: print → debind → sinter
A ceramic part is never done at the printer. Additive Plus supports every step.
Step 01
Print the green part
Laser SLA polymerizes ceramic paste layer by layer, 25–125 µm layers, no supports. Green parts come off the plate with the AUTO CERAKLEANER.
Step 02
Debind
A controlled thermal cycle burns out the binder, leaving a fragile “brown” part. We hand you the debinding schedule for your ceramic.
Step 03
Sinter to full density
High-temperature sintering densifies the part. It shrinks roughly 15–20% linearly — we supply the shrinkage map so parts land on tolerance.

Common questions
Don't see yours? Email [email protected] — NDA standard, typical reply within 4 hours.
What post-processing is required after printing on the C3601 Ultimate?
Parts printed on the C3601 Ultimate come off the plate as green parts that still contain binder, so they need two thermal finishing steps. First, debinding burns the binder out in a controlled cycle, leaving a fragile brown part. Then high-temperature sintering densifies the ceramic to its final properties. Before debinding, unpolymerized paste is removed with the AUTO CERAKLEANER. Additive Plus supplies the debinding and sintering schedules for each ceramic, so you are not developing the full print, debind and sinter chain on your own.
What is the linear shrinkage after sintering and how do I design for it?
Ceramic parts from the C3601 Ultimate shrink roughly 15-20% linearly during sintering, depending on the ceramic and its solids loading. You design the green part oversized so the sintered part lands on your target dimensions. Additive Plus provides a shrinkage map for your specific ceramic and geometry, so the scaling factors are validated rather than guessed. For tight-tolerance features, machining can also be done at an intermediate stage before final sintering.
What sintering temperature and equipment does each ceramic need?
Sintering temperature depends on the ceramic: alumina and zirconia typically sinter in the 1,450-1,650 degrees C range, while other technical ceramics differ. The C3601 Ultimate produces the green part, and debinding and sintering take place in separate furnaces. Additive Plus specifies the furnace, atmosphere and thermal cycle for each material you run, and can supply the debinding and sintering equipment so the full workflow comes from one partner.
What mechanical properties can the C3601 Ultimate achieve after sintering?
After sintering, parts from the C3601 Ultimate reach near-full density, commonly above 99% for alumina and zirconia, with the hardness, flexural strength and thermal resistance of conventionally produced technical ceramics. Exact values depend on the ceramic and the sintering cycle. Because the printer uses laser SLA with surface roughness under 2 microns, printed features are dense and fine rather than porous. Additive Plus can share representative property data for your target ceramic and run a paid sample so you can measure results on your own parts.
Which ceramic materials does the C3601 Ultimate support?
The C3601 Ultimate runs 3DMix ceramic pastes including alumina (Al2O3), zirconia (ZrO2), zirconia 8Y, silicon nitride (Si3N4), aluminium nitride (AlN), cordierite and hydroxyapatite (HA). Its open parameter architecture also lets you qualify custom ceramic formulations rather than being locked to a fixed material list. Additive Plus can advise which ceramic fits your application and supply the matching paste.
Is the C3601 Ultimate suitable for dental zirconia or biocompatible implants?
Yes. The C3601 Ultimate prints zirconia and biocompatible ceramics such as hydroxyapatite, and 3DCeram has a long track record in biomedical ceramics including cranial and maxillofacial implants and bone substitutes. Whether a specific part is cleared for patient use depends on your material grade, your sintering and your own regulatory validation; the printer and materials support the workflow but do not by themselves confer clearance. Additive Plus can help you select biocompatible ceramics and define the process.
Can Additive Plus print a paid sample part before I buy the C3601 Ultimate?
Yes. Additive Plus offers a paid benchmark part in your target ceramic on the C3601 Ultimate before you commit to a system. Send your STL and material requirement, and we print, debind and sinter a representative part so you can verify dimensions, surface finish and mechanical results on your own geometry. This is the fastest way to confirm the C3601 Ultimate fits your application, and a capability call comes with it before any purchase decision.
