Meet CHAMP

CHAMP is our Ceramic Hybrid Additive Manufacturing Platform. It combines additive and subtractive processes to unlock new manufacturing opportunities for previously difficult to process materials. Developed over 7 years of research, we are building an industry spec platform ready to revolutionize Ceramic AM.

What it does

CHAMP combines:

  • Volumetric ceramic paste extrusion

  • Polymer support material

  • Micromachining spindle with Automatic Tool Changer

  • Accelerated drying using an infrared lamp

  • Process monitoring

Key features

  • Hybrid Manufacturing example

    Hybrid Process

    Combining paste extrusion and green machining operations to create ceramic components with high density and precision, unlocking new manufacturing opportunities for technical ceramics.

  • Three containers of colored powder, with scoops inside, in yellow, blue, and beige colors.

    Material flexibility

    Paste extrusion with accelerated drying ensures a wide range of processable ceramic materials, avoiding the typical material constraints of fusion or light-based approaches.

  • Defect detection for ceramic manufacturing

    Process Monitoring

    AI-driven operation of additive and subtractive processes enables automated defect detection and correction for qualified defect-free manufacturing.

    HEPA-grade filtration

    We take safety seriously. CHAMP uses HEPA grade filtration to remove any airborne particulates created by green-machining operations.

Not just an idea…
