Abstract
A method of manufacturing a tooling assembly and the tooling assembly () for ceramic cores. The tooling assembly includes a backing plate () comprising a top surface (), side surfaces (), and a bottom surface () and a plurality of lithographically derived inserts () each having a bottom surface (), side surfaces (), and a positive top surface () and pieced together on the top surface () of the backing plate (). The method includes providing the backing plate () and plurality of lithographically derived inserts (). A non-conformal positive surface is generated from the plurality of lithographically derived inserts (). A negative flexible mold is created from the non-conformal positive surface. The negative flexible mold is then prepared for casting for an advanced ceramic core.
