Ceramic injection moulding is a process very similar to metal injection moulding. In ceramic injection moulding the ceramic powder is combined with a binder and injected into the mould cavity under high pressure. A slight heat is applied to bind the powder and the 'green' component is ejected. A solvent is used to remove most of the binder and then the component is then fired to remove the binder and bond the ceramic powder to complete the component.

Ceramic injection moulding can be used to produce components such as hermetic sealed, insulated feed-through assemblies for medical implants, insulators for electricity transmission, finely detailed insulators of all sorts, heat insulators for furnaces, ovens and electrical equipment, wear resistant nozzles and tips for sandblasters and torches, and high accuracy, non-metalic moulded components for medical and micro-fluidic applications.
