3D Printed Ceramic Mug | The Cool Parts Show #48

We tend to see pottery as a manual process — the work of an artist’s manual skill, perhaps working at a potter’s wheel. Matt Sutton, through his company MadeXBinary, applies an entirely different form of art and skill to produce pottery. Mastering 3D printing with clay has enabled him to realize fully automated production of distinctive, aesthetic kitchenware forms, including the 3D printed mugs we look at in this episode of The Cool Parts Show. Clay is a type of ceramic material that is in some ways easy to 3D print with, and in other ways challenging to apply this way. We talk about the challenges. Succeeding at additive manufacturing in clay has allowed MadeXBinary to develop what Sutton calls “digital pottery.“ This episode brought to you by Carpenter Additive.  LEARN MORE ABOUT: - MadeXBinary: - More 3D printed ceramics: bioceramics for bone replacement — - More 3D printed ceramics: automotive piston — * * * Subscribe to THE BUILDUP, Additive Manufacturing Media’s newsletter on 3D printing for industrial production:
