Alumina Ceramics Machining

Alumina ceramic machining and grinding.

Alumina ceramics machining.

The availability of fired grinding stock ceramic makes the production of small quantity and prototype orders less costly and offers shorter lead times. Additionally materials like silicon carbide sic may not fit the precise definition of a ceramic material but they can still be classified as part of the ceramic family. Alumina has a good machinability compared to other engineering ceramics. However the sintering process that is required to fully densify the material causes the alumiuna body to shrink approximately 20.

Because it has been a popular ceramic material we have extensive experience in machining it. San jose delta is a manufacturer of high purity alumina ceramic materials. Alumina has excellent corrosion resistance. San jose delta maintains an in house inventory of most grades of alumina ceramics as bars rods tubes and sheets.

Alumina can be produced in a range of purities with additives designed to enhance properties. Alumina machining grinding. Ceramics can be made from several different types of hard metal oxides or nitrides. We will analyze your specific requirements and aid you in the selection of qualified ceramic materials.

Our machining experience is in each type of advanced ceramic material currently available in the market such as high purity alumina yttria stabilized zirconia silicon carbide steatite cordierite mullite ceramics etc. We specialise in the design manufacture and machining of bespoke and advanced technical ceramic components for an ever widening array of worldwide applications. A wide variety of ceramic processing methods can be applied including machining or net shape forming to produce a wide variety of sizes and shapes of component. O keefe ceramics has been machining quality ceramic components for numerous industries since 1984.

While in the green or biscuit form it can be machined relatively easily into complex geometries. Machining ceramics is in our dna but so is our firmly rooted principle that the customer always comes first. Alumina can be machined in green biscuit or fully dense states. We are a registered beryllium oxide processing facility.

We ve spent over 30 years constantly developing our machining and inspection processes to be certain that quality is never sacrificed. As a family owned ceramic manufacturer quality is and will always be our number one standard. It is also plasma resistant. Our advanced ceramic machining site has surface grinders id grinder od grinder machining center and various lapping.

We perform precision machining grinding and polishing services on technical ceramics macor machinable glass ceramic by corning beryllium oxide and other hard and ceramic like materials.
