Cost-effective Rapid Prototyping Services
At Elimold, we leverage the power of our ceramic 3D printing services to overcome design limitations for ceramic products. Our unique 3D printing process allows us to work with a wide range of advanced ceramic materials. 3D ceramic printing is a cost-effective rapid prototyping process and can produce extremely complex part geometries. These parts are either impossible to make using traditional ceramic production techniques or are too expensive to produce. Join us on our journey into the future of ceramic manufacturing. Our ceramic 3D printing technology is often used to make rapid prototype parts for applications across a variety of industries. Producing these parts using traditional manufacturing processes typically requires expensive molds or tools. However, using our ceramic 3D printing process, such molds or tools are not required, reducing production costs for small-scale production runs. The lack of tooling also means that designs can be easily adjusted by simply changing the design drawing file. This flexibility and the lack of significant change costs make it ideal for prototyping.
Testing & Validation
The production of high-density ceramic printed parts requires rigorous oversight and attention to every step of the process. From material characterization during ceramic material development to mechanical testing and density analysis of printed parts, our engineering team always ensures that every ceramic part we help produce performs as expected. In an era where speed to market is critical, Elimold’s ceramic 3D printing services provide a competitive advantage in the product development lifecycle. This advanced technology simplifies the path from digital design to functional prototype, significantly reducing development time and cost compared to traditional ceramic manufacturing techniques. Ceramic printing technology has the flexibility to adjust designs without the need for extensive tooling, making it the first choice for accelerating production or commercializing niche products, enabling rapid prototyping of ceramic parts for functional testing and evaluating market acceptance in advance.

Complex 3D geometries and structures in ceramics can be manufactured without tool
Continuous optimization and efficiency gains across the entire value chain in the tool-free production of complex 3D-printed ceramic components. From prototyping to agile industrial series production. Together with you, we test and qualify your specific ceramic material range in advance to ensure optimal industrial suitability in our processes. Ceramic additive production processes offer important economic advantages when various industries require custom ceramic components with complex geometries, smaller batches and increasing variety, and when conventional ceramic component production reaches its economic limits due to high tool manufacturing costs or long changeover times. Elimold has powerful 3D printing systems as well as an in-house 3D printing factory for large ceramic components or small components in large batches. When it comes to large-scale or technical printing of 3D ceramics, we overcome the limitations of conventional systems and processes. Our additive production processes reduce component manufacturing times by up to 75% by eliminating the need for tool and mold manufacturing. This includes the production of small and medium-sized series or the manufacture of components with many variants. 3D printing processes also enable geometries that were previously unthinkable.
