Abstract
Over the last decade, several RP methods have been developed as techniques to directly or indirectly fabricate ceramic parts. Each process has its own characteristics, advantages and disadvantages. To make a sound decision in the selection of these RP-based processes, one must have a clear understanding of the processes and their respective advantages and disadvantages. These RP processes include laser lithography (LL), fused deposition modeling (FDM), selective laser sintering (SLS) [1–7], laminated object manufacturing (LOM), 3-D printing and Sanders Model Maker ™ etc. Formal efforts have demonstrated the feasibility of these processes for the direct fabrication of functional ceramics [8–11]. In addition, CAM-LEM, shape deposition manufacturing (SDM), multiphase jet solidification (MJS), selective area laser deposition (SALD), laser engineered net shaping (LENS), and extrusion freeform fabrication are being developed for fabrication of ceramic parts [12–14].
