Additive manufacturing (AM) of ceramic materials has attracted tremendous attention in recent years, due to its potential to fabricate suitable advanced ceramic structures for various engineering applications. Robocasting, a subset of ceramic AM, is an ideal technique for constructing fine and dense ceramic structures with geometrically complex morphology. With the freedom and convenience to deposit various materials within any 3D spatial position, ceramic robocasting opens up unlimited opportunities, which are otherwise hardly attainable from other AM techniques. Here, a summary of the recent progress on the fabrication of single and multi-ceramic structures by robocasting is provided, as well as the prospects of achieving shapeable ceramic structures. The current challenges in ceramic robocasting and an outlook on its development, especially toward the fabrication of self-shaping ceramic structures, are also discussed.
