Learning outcomes
After course student can list different stages of ceramic manufacturing process. Student can explain how different raw material selection and processing steps affect to final structure of material. Student can apply the additive systems for colloidal processing. Student can select shape forming method when producing mass production components small series and different shapes of components. The student can suggest heat treatment cycles for power compacts having different raw materials and made by shape forming methods.
