Additive Manufacturing / 3D Printing

Technical ceramics, including silicon carbide, are at the forefront of high-performance components. These materials boast extreme resistance to heat, chemicals, high abrasion, and wear, making them essential where other materials fall short.

Additive manufacturing (3D printing) is revolutionizing the game. Unlike subtractive processes, it offers a resource-saving approach, precisely applying material only where the component needs it. The result? Unique geometries and structures that fully exploit the strengths of the technology.

Technology breakthroughs, such as Fiven’s SIKA Densitec X-Form and SIKA Densitec S-Cast, are changing the industry. Direct printing of suspensions with high solids content produces complex, high-quality, and dense components without tooling costs or additional post-processing steps.
