Enhance Performance with Technical ceramics, improve component performance in harsh environments. They are ideal for applications where steel or glass components often fail, causing costly downtime. While ceramic parts may have a higher initial cost, their reliability in high-temperature settings and demanding conditions makes them a smart investment.
Key industries include aerospace, semiconductors, oil fields, and medical applications.
Technical ceramics present unique challenges, often starting as delicate “green” ceramics made from pressed powders like alumina or zirconia. While they can be machined before high-temperature firing, this process leads to shrinkage, making tight tolerances difficult to achieve. Precision features with dimensional tolerances of a few microns, can only be realized post-firing, which increases costs. If your project doesn’t require such exact tolerances, you can save significantly!
Selecting the right ceramic involves understanding the challenges you’ll face, such as temperature, corrosion, and strength requirements. It’s essential to consider the properties of the raw materials before making your choice.
