In this work, coaxial conductor–ceramic direct ink writing enables the printing of sensitive or encapsulated materials onto heterogeneous and rough substrates. While encasing the core fluid within a stiff ceramic shell, continuity may be maintained, even while printing onto conventionally challenging substrates. Here, we report the development of a coaxial ceramic direct ink writing suite and explore coflow interrelationships based on microfluidic principles. A coaxial nozzle is designed to facilitate the coextrusion of an alumina shell, whereas indium–tin-oxide inks constitute the core. In this manner, a core–shell ceramic element may be printed onto rough substrates for future high-temperature applications. Colloidal inks are engineered to provide the required rheological and sintering performance. Moreover, flow simulations in conjunction with microfluidic coflow principles are used to explore the coaxial printing processing space, thus controlling the core–shell architectures. Physical modeling is further used to analyze core deformations and eccentricity. As a result, simulations are validated experimentally, and the analyses are used to deposit coaxial ceramic features onto heterogeneous, high-temperature ceramic substrates.
