Lithoz adds 4K upgrade to CeraFab S65 for dark ceramics and finer detail
Lithoz will present a Performance Pack for its CeraFab System S65 and S65 Medical ceramic printers at Formnext. The add-on is based on a 4K projection system and is aimed at raising the light intensity and resolution of the lithography-based ceramic process. According to the report, resolution rises from 40 µm to 25 µm, and light intensity roughly doubles. The company says this makes dark ceramics, which are harder to cure with light, easier to process. The Performance Pack will be shown live at the Lithoz booth in Hall 11.0, Stand B50. Lithoz also plans several application demonstrations, including 116 aluminium nitride cooling plates on one CeraFab S320 platform, a turbine blade casting core built with German Access e.V., hydroxyapatite spinal cages developed with Spherene, and rocket engine segments made with Leap71. For ceramic additive manufacturing users, the upgrade targets finer features and a wider material range without a new machine.
