high-performance 3D Printing

Materic has expertise producing complex 3D printed parts made from a variety of materials, including polymers, like nylon and polylactic acid (PLA), and high-performance ceramics, like alumina.

Using commercial and customized additive manufacturing equipment, Materic is equipped to reverse engineer, produce, post-process, assemble, test and characterize parts for applications ranging from biocompatible medical devices to aerospace vehicles and more:

  • Consumer Goods

  • Defense
  • Biomedical Devices
  • Electronics
  • Ground and Aerospace Vehicles

Custom – Adaptable – Scalable

Our Process

We work closely with our customers to define performance targets (e.g., durability, functionality, conductivity, sustainability), then formulate and screen material candidates. Materic can also scale pilot volumes and support transfer to in-house or contract manufacturing processes.

Resin- and Powder-based Parts

SLA (Stereolithography) and SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) 3D printing platforms enable fast iteration and customization for a variety of use cases. Materic manufactures SLS and SLA parts made of specialty polymer resins. We can engineer these parts to be flexible, tough, high-temperature, biocompatible, and/or flame-retardant.

Oxide Ceramics

Materic adapts SLA printing processes to produce specialty ceramic materials, including alumina. Our methods ensure high-resolution printing for smooth, injection mold-like surfaces and post-processing for end-use readiness.

Non-Oxide Ceramics

Materic is developing and scaling a novel additive manufacturing method that enables fabrication of advanced ceramic components. Our proprietary Selective Laser Reaction Sintering (SLRS) process produces dense, high-purity carbide and nitride ceramics ideal for performance-critical applications.
