What your ceramic process engineer actually checks

Full workflow, not just a printer

Ceramic AM needs debinding and sintering — most vendors stop at the printer. Additive Plus supplies the full chain: C900 FLEX, ceramic pastes, debinding schedules, and sintering. One partner, one validated workflow.

Shrinkage mapped before you print

Sintered parts shrink roughly 15–20% linearly. We supply the shrinkage factors and CAD compensation for your ceramic and geometry, so the sintered result lands on nominal — not after three failed builds.

A materials engineer on the line

Questions on paste selection, debind cycles, or sintering atmosphere go to engineers who have run ceramic AM — not a ticket queue. Sub-4h reply, NDA standard.

About this product

3DCeram C900 FLEX (formerly marketed as CeraMAKER 900) is an industrial ceramic stereolithography 3D printer for high-density technical ceramics. A top-down SLA architecture with a 355 nm UV laser and ~35 µm spot cures ceramic slurry into dense, near-net-shape green bodies at 10–125 µm layer resolution and as-printed roughness down to Ra ≤ 2 µm — internal channels, lattices and undercuts that pressing, casting or machining cannot reach.

3DCeram C900 FLEX ceramic SLA 3D printer for technical ceramics
3DCeram C900 FLEX — industrial ceramic SLA system.

Three interchangeable build platforms (100×300, 200×300, 300×300 mm) with 100 mm maximum height cover R&D sample batches through production components. The SAM (Small Amount of Material) option drops the minimum run to 100 mL of slurry — the difference between qualifying and abandoning an expensive or experimental composition.

Why ceramic engineers choose the C900 FLEX

Spec-backed reasons, not marketing.

Top-down SLA, support-free

The platform lowers as the part builds bottom-up. Complex internal channels, lattices and undercuts cure directly into the green geometry — no supports to remove from inside a ceramic part.

11+ validated ceramics

Al₂O₃, ZrO₂, ATZ, zirconia 8Y, Si₃N₄, AlN, TCP, hydroxyapatite, cordierite, fused silica — plus multi-material ceramic + conductive silver for co-sintered electronics.

Three platforms + SAM mode

Swap 100×300, 200×300 and 300×300 mm platforms without reconfiguring the machine. SAM option runs a batch on 100 mL of slurry for lab-economy qualification.

355 nm laser, ~35 µm spot

10 µm layers resolve fine features; 125 µm layers push production throughput. Ra ≤ 2 µm as-printed reduces downstream finishing on the sintered part.

Print → Debind → Sinter: the full ceramic workflow

Ceramic AM does not end at the printer. Every part goes through three stages — plan for them from the CAD file.

Step 01
Print the green body

The C900 FLEX cures ceramic slurry layer by layer into a near-net-shape green part. Geometry is fixed here — including internal features that can’t be machined later.

Step 02
Debind

The organic binder is removed thermally on a controlled schedule tuned to the ceramic and wall thickness. Additive Plus supplies the debinding parameters with the system.

Step 03
Sinter to full density

The part densifies at material-specific temperature and atmosphere and shrinks roughly 15–20% linearly. Parts are scaled up in CAD so the sintered result lands on nominal.

Validated ceramic materials

  • Oxide ceramics: Al₂O₃ (alumina), ZrO₂ (zirconia), ATZ (alumina-toughened zirconia), zirconia 8Y
  • Bioceramics: TCP (tricalcium phosphate), hydroxyapatite (HA)
  • Non-oxide ceramics: Si₃N₄ (silicon nitride), AlN (aluminum nitride)
  • Structural / thermal: cordierite, fused silica, Silicore

We print alumina turbine casting cores with internal cooling channels no die could pull. Density after sintering is repeatable lot to lot, and the shrinkage map they gave us landed on nominal the first time.

We qualified a zirconia implant geometry on the SAM option before buying — 100 mL of slurry, printed, debound, and sintered. That paid sample run is why we signed off on the machine.

AlN substrates with co-fired silver used to mean tooling and lead time. Top-down SLA gives us the internal features directly, and their engineer had our debind cycle dialed in fast.

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 C900 FLEX?
Parts printed on the C900 FLEX come off the machine as ceramic green bodies and require two thermal steps before they are finished: debinding to remove the organic binder, then sintering to densify the ceramic. Additive Plus supplies the validated debinding schedule and sintering cycle for each material, plus Ceracleaner and furnace equipment. Plan for both steps from the CAD stage — final geometry and shrinkage are set by the sinter, not the print.
How much does a C900 FLEX part shrink after sintering, and how do I account for it?
Ceramic parts printed on the C900 FLEX shrink roughly 15–20% linearly during sintering, depending on the ceramic and its solids loading. You compensate by scaling the part up in CAD using the shrinkage factor for that specific material so the sintered result lands on nominal dimensions. Additive Plus provides the measured shrinkage factors for each validated ceramic, so you are not calibrating by trial and error across multiple failed builds.
What sintering temperature and equipment does each ceramic need?
Sintering temperature and atmosphere depend on the ceramic: alumina and zirconia typically sinter in air around 1450–1600°C, while non-oxides such as silicon nitride and aluminum nitride require controlled or inert atmospheres. The C900 FLEX handles the printing stage; Additive Plus supplies the matched debinding and sintering furnaces along with the validated cycle for your material, so the full workflow comes from one partner rather than three vendors.
What mechanical properties can the C900 FLEX achieve?
Because the C900 FLEX prints dense green bodies that sinter to near-full density, parts reach properties comparable to conventionally formed technical ceramics — for example, sintered alumina and zirconia typically exceed 98% of theoretical density with hardness and flexural strength in the standard range for those materials. Exact density, hardness, and flexural strength depend on the ceramic and the sintering cycle. Additive Plus can share representative property data for your target material.
Which ceramic materials does the C900 FLEX support?
The C900 FLEX runs 11+ validated ceramics: oxides including alumina (Al₂O₃), zirconia (ZrO₂), alumina-toughened zirconia (ATZ), and zirconia 8Y; bioceramics TCP and hydroxyapatite; non-oxides silicon nitride (Si₃N₄) and aluminum nitride (AlN); plus cordierite, fused silica, and Silicore. It also supports multi-material printing of ceramic with conductive silver for co-sintered electronics. Additive Plus can help qualify additional compositions.
Is the C900 FLEX suitable for dental zirconia and biocompatible applications?
Yes. The C900 FLEX prints zirconia and bioceramics such as hydroxyapatite and TCP used in medical and dental applications, and its top-down SLA process suits the complex geometries of implants and scaffolds. Biocompatibility is a property of the finished, sintered part and the specific certified material and process — the printer does not confer clearance on its own. Additive Plus supports qualification for ISO 13485 environments; confirm regulatory status for your indication with our materials engineers.
What is the total workflow time from print to sintered part?
Total time on the C900 FLEX workflow depends on part height and material, but plan across three stages rather than a single print time: printing runs from several hours to overnight depending on layer thickness and build height; debinding is a slow, multi-hour to multi-day thermal ramp sized to wall thickness; and sintering adds another controlled heating and cooling cycle. Additive Plus provides realistic per-material cycle times so you can plan production throughput accurately.
Can Additive Plus print a paid test part before I buy the C900 FLEX?
Yes. Send your STL and target ceramic and we will print, debind, and sinter a paid benchmark part on the C900 FLEX workflow so you can validate density, shrinkage, surface finish, and geometry before committing to a system. The SAM option makes this economical — a qualification run needs as little as 100 mL of slurry. This paid sample plus a capability call is how most buyers de-risk a ceramic AM purchase.
