Machining Non Porous Alumina Ceramic

Also fine diamond machining is used at ceramco to machine non ceramics including quartz.

Machining non porous alumina ceramic.

We inventory a large supply of alumina material in powder form and solid forms. Buy custom alumina components. Bisque is semi fired material that machines easily with regular cutting tools and then is fired to full hardness. Manufacturers alumina ceramic materials in purities ranging from 96 99 99 in various sizes and shapes including substrates.

Because it has been a popular ceramic material we have extensive experience in machining it. This is the most cost effective solution. Precision ceramics is your alumina machining specialist for your technical ceramic prototyping manufacturing needs. The resistance to machining ceramics has a lot to do with a reluctance to subject machine tools to such an abrasive material.

Shrinkage occurs during the final firing and this must be taken in to account but otherwise the material is pure ceramic. It is also plasma resistant. Machining to micron accuracy is. No machining all depending upon the requirements of the oem ceramic part the geometry and final tolerances can oftentimes be achieved during the near net shaping process.

We are always happy to use our many years of advanced ceramics experience to provide advice on materials design and application. Stock sizes for alumina 96 substrates range from 010 thick to 100 and ships within 1 3 business days. One way to make ceramic alumina zirconia parts is to machine them out of bisque. Alumina has a good machinability compared to other engineering ceramics.
