Technical ceramic contract producer Steinbach AG has bought two new Lithoz CeraFab S65 3D printers.
It takes the corporate’s fleet of Lithography-based Ceramic Manufacturing (LCM) machines as much as seven.
This growth is ready to permit Steinbach to ‘speed up current momentum’ and ‘additional scale its serial manufacturing capacities.’ The corporate has stated it has made the extra installations to satisfy the excessive demand for additively manufactured ceramic elements throughout a spread of vertical markets. Among the many markets Steinbach serves are medical expertise, machine engineering, measuring and sensor applied sciences.
Volker Steinbach, CEO of Steinbach AG, stated: “After a few years of working with LCM expertise, rising our 3D printer fleet is a pure response to rising market demand. Coming from numerous industries reminiscent of machine engineering, measuring and sensor applied sciences, and MedTech, our clients depend on constant high quality, reliability, and long-term manufacturing continuity. Apart from, now we have strengthened our post-processing capabilities to 13 furnaces, enabling us to cut back supply instances for prototypes to 3 to 4 weeks. By increasing Steinbach AG’s LCM-based machine park, now we have scaled our rigorous high quality requirements to satisfy buyer expectations at mass manufacturing degree, additional reinforcing our place as a trusted manufacturing associate for high-performance ceramic elements.”
Dr. Johannes Homa, CEO of Lithoz, added: “This funding by Steinbach AG showcases innovation-leading OEMs more and more use skilled contract producers inside our LCM-based Ceramic 3D Manufacturing unit community to open a low-threshold entry to efficiently discover new enterprise and engineering alternatives. After increase LCM expertise experience for 10 years, Steinbach AG is now reaping the rewards of taking the leap. With seven LCM printers working at full capability and a profound understanding of trade challenges and desires, the corporate is totally leveraging the serial manufacturing capabilities of ceramic 3D printing. Lithoz’ Ceramic 3D Manufacturing unit, our world community of contract producers and companions, has arrived on the frontier of business use circumstances and purposes and retains pushing.”
Final 12 months, Steinbach manufactured an award-winning monoblock moving-coil turntable cartridge with a 3D printed ceramic net capsule utilizing Lithoz LCM expertise.
