On February 2, 2026, Ming Chi University of Technology, in collaboration with the Taiwan Ceramic Society and the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI), successfully hosted the “3D Ceramic Printing Innovation and Applications Symposium” on campus. The event attracted approximately 150 participants, including experts, scholars, and industry professionals from academia, research institutions, and industry. The symposium focused on innovative applications of 3D ceramic printing in advanced manufacturing, semiconductors, power electronics, biomedical engineering, and product design, providing a cross-disciplinary platform for exchange and fostering technological integration and industry collaboration.

　　The symposium featured a rich and diverse program, inviting distinguished speakers from Taiwan and abroad to deliver keynote presentations. Discussions explored the development trends and application potential of ceramic additive manufacturing technologies. Topics included digital transformation driven by 3D printing, advanced processing technologies of aluminum nitride ceramics and composites for power electronics and thermal management, key applications of ceramic materials in the semiconductor industry, and the clinical use of 3D-printed porous bioglass scaffolds in bone tissue engineering and joint surgery. By integrating both theoretical insights and practical applications, the symposium highlighted the significant potential of 3D ceramic printing across multiple industries.

　　In addition, the symposium examined the impact of critical additive manufacturing parameters on material performance, including the role of powder particle size and microstructure in the fabrication of high-performance structural ceramics, as well as breakthroughs in Digital Light Processing (DLP) technology for precision ceramic forming. In the field of product design, speakers also shared strategies for scaling clay-based 3D printing from single objects to integrated systems, demonstrating the versatility of ceramic printing in innovative design and real-world applications.

　　The event fostered lively discussions, with participating experts and scholars engaging in in-depth exchanges on technological trends, industry needs, and future collaboration models. The symposium not only facilitated interdisciplinary knowledge sharing and strengthened academia–industry partnerships, but also underscored the growing importance of 3D ceramic printing in advanced manufacturing and high-value applications.

　　According to the Office of Research and Development at Ming Chi University of Technology, the university will continue to promote industry–academia–research collaboration platforms, deepen the development and implementation of key technologies, and enhance Taiwan’s competitiveness in advanced ceramics and additive manufacturing through cross-disciplinary integration and international collaboration.
