Expert Ceramic Materials

We work with an extensive suite of engineered ceramics—Alumina (Al₂O₃), Zirconia (ZrO₂, ZTA), Silicon Nitride (Si₃N₄), Silicon Carbide (SiC), Aluminum Nitride (AlN), Boron Nitride (BN), Beryllium Oxide (BeO), and Machinable Glass Ceramic (MGC)—supplied in forms from powders to finished components.

Advanced Manufacturing Capabilities

  • High‑Precision CNC & Grinding: µm-level tolerances (±0.005–0.002 mm); mirror finishes via diamond grinding/polishing .
  • Laser Cutting: Clean, crack-free edges with ultra-short pulse lasers—perfect for delicate ceramic features.
  • Metallization & Brazing: Mo–Mn ceramic metallization, active brazing, and hermetic ceramic-to-metal joints ideal for aerospace, vacuum, and electronic applications.
  • Near-Net Shape Forming: Injection molding, cold/hot pressing, and extrusion to streamline designs before finishing.

Trusted Quality & Support

  • Engineering & Design Guidance: Collaborate early to match material properties to application needs and DFM strategies.
  • Rapid Turnaround: Quotes within 48 hours; prototype to small-batch production scalable up to 2,000 pcs.
  • recision Inspection: ISO‑grade quality control with µm-level coordinate measurement ensures dimensional accuracy.

Our Full-Service Workflow

Step 1

Please provide as much information as possible about the parts and your requirements.

  • Drawing(s) or description of required shape
  • Operating Conditions / Application
  • Please provide as much information as possible.

  • Quantity
  • Required Delivery Date
  • Other requests or issues

We respect our clients’ privacy and are happy to work under confidentiality agreements when required.

Step 2

Material selection & design optimization

We provide expert guidance on selecting the optimal ceramic material and refining your part’s design for manufacturability:

  • Evaluate operating conditions—temperature, mechanical stress, electrical or vacuum environment—to recommend the best ceramic grade.
  • A wide range of ceramic materials are available including Alumina (Al₂O₃), Zirconium Oxide (ZrO₂), Aluminum Nitride (AlN), Silicon Nitride (Si₃N₄) and Machinable Glass Ceramics (MGC).
  • Optimize design: adjust wall thickness, fillets, tolerance envelopes, and surface finish to match high-precision manufacturing capabilities like CNC grinding and laser cutting.

Once design adjustments are agreed upon, we finalize material recommendations and confirm manufacturability.
