3DCeram Sinto: Ceramic SLA 3D Printers and Process
3DCeram Sinto is a 3D printing process provider for technical ceramics, based in Limoges, France, and part of the Sinto group since 2017. The company builds ceramic stereolithography (SLA) printers, develops its own ceramic slurries, and offers maintenance, training and printing software alongside the machines. Its stated focus areas are industry (defence, automotive), aerospace and aeronautics (foundry cores, mirrors) and biomedical work such as cranial implants. The printer range covers the C101 EASY LAB for development and research through to prototyping, the C1000 FLEXMATIC described as a semi-automatic line for industrial users, and the C3601 ULTIMATE for large parts. A desktop extrusion machine, the M.A.T., handles technical ceramic filaments and some metals such as copper and stainless steel. Materials are catalogued under the 3DMIX name as oxide and non-oxide ceramics, with alumina, zirconia, silicon nitride, cordierite, aluminium nitride and zirconia 8Y listed, and custom formulations developed on request.
