There are many aspects to consider when designing with ceramic materials. However, STC can manufacture to nearly any configuration or tolerance that can be manufactured in metal or other materials.
Any components that can be considered complete in the "as fired" state will be more cost effective. Most of the expense in manufacturing ceramic parts and components is in diamond grinding parts after firing. If your design can be made to net or near net shape in the "green state" (compressed powder, before firing) which can be machined with standard tooling, grinding costs can be reduced.
Keep in mind:
