Golden, CO \u2013 The Alliance for the Development of Additive Processing Technologies (ADAPTSM),<\/a> an industry-academia consortium that advances data informatics and advanced characterization technologies to Optimize for AdditiveSM, welcomes new member Lithoz<\/a>, the world leader in development and production of ceramic materials and additive manufacturing (AM) systems.<\/p>\n

Lithoz connected with ADAPT through a research collaboration with Professors Corinne Packard and Geoff Brennecka at Colorado School of Mines. Mines is currently investigating mechanical properties of ceramics produced by lithography-based ceramic manufacturing (LCM)<\/a> with graduate student Sarah Sortedahl with the intent of exploring whether separate standards are needed for ceramic AM.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe mechanical properties of ceramics are highly sensitive to material or manufacturing flaws,\u201d said Professor Packard. \u201cWorking with Lithoz directly, and having a CeraFab 7500<\/a> printer here at Mines, allows us to rapidly evaluate and optimize processes for achieving strength and reliability in AM ceramics.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCeramic additive manufacturing is particularly suited to aerospace and biomedical applications. The representation of these markets in ADAPT\u2019s membership makes Mines and ADAPT a natural partnership. This partnership allowed us to install one of our ceramic printers in a Mines lab. There, it is being used for research and courses focused on AM technology and design for AM,\u201d said Shawn Allan, VP of Lithoz America. \u201cWe are excited to see the student research projects that result from this new capability. We also hope to leverage resources such as ADAPT\u2019s Citrination database to improve the utilization and learning that can be achieved with the vast amount of data generated in the LCM process<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Lithoz membership in ADAPT formally marks our commitment to expand ADAPT\u2019s research mission to all solid materials, beyond the alloys focus we had in our first few years,\u201d said ADAPT Executive Director Aaron Stebner.<\/p>\n

About Lithoz<\/p>\n

Lithoz is the world leader in development and production of ceramic materials and additive manufacturing systems. Ceramics produced with these systems meet the highest demands of industry especially in terms of density, strength and precision. Lithoz was founded in Vienna, Austria, in 2011 based upon research from Vienna University of Technology. Lithoz America was founded in 2017 to support the North American ceramic industry.
