Abstract
A method comprising: a) determining the bow () in the extension direction of one or more linear paths on an outer surface or outer surfaces () of an extruded ceramic part () so that maximum extrusion direction bow () of the one of more linear paths or outer surfaces () may be determined of the extruded ceramic greenware part (); b) identifying the linear path on the outer surface or the outer surfaces () having maximum convex bow; c) placing the greenware part () on a carrier with the linear path on the outer surface or the outer surface location having the maximum convex shape in contact with the carrier; and d) processing the greenware part () while disposed on the carrier with the linear path on the outer surface or the surface having the convex shape on the carrier, such that the bow () is reduced as a result of the process.
