Sinto Advanced Ceramics USA has achieved ITAR registration and compliance for its parts production business, positioning the company to serve customers in regulated industries, including aerospace, defense, electronics, energy, and advanced manufacturing. The Grand Ledge, Michigan company, previously known as 3DCeram Sinto USA, is part of Sinto America, the North American group of companies of Japan’s Sintokogio Group.
Sinto Advanced Ceramics USA produces 3D printed ceramic components using stereolithography (from the Sinto-owned company 3DCeram) and lithography-based ceramic manufacturing (LCM, a type of DLP from Lithoz), reaching tolerances below 0.05 mm in materials including alumina, zirconia, and silica cores for investment casting. The company maintains ISO 9001 quality management certification alongside its new ITAR registration and serves applications spanning aerospace and defense systems, medical devices, semiconductor equipment, electronics, and industrial manufacturing.
ITAR, the International Traffic in Arms Regulations, governs the manufacture, export, and handling of defense-related articles and technical data in the United States, and registration is typically a prerequisite for suppliers seeking to work on defense and other export-controlled programs.
Sinto Advanced Ceramics USA operates alongside Sinto Advanced Ceramics Europe GmbH, the Immenstadt, Germany ceramic 3D printing manufacturer formerly known as Bosch Advanced Ceramics, which joined the Sintokogio Group in January 2026 and recently completed its own ISO 9001:2015 recertification, as VoxelMatters reported. Sintokogio’s additive manufacturing portfolio also includes 3D Ceram Sinto, a ceramic stereolithography specialist, and Laempe, which produces sand binder jetting systems for foundries.
