Alumina Ceramic Machining

Alumina ceramics are produced through methods such as injection molding, die pressing, isostatic pressing, slip casting, and extrusion. After sintering and densification, machining requires diamond grinding techniques. Advanced Ceramic Hub utilizes cutting-edge green and biscuit machining technology to produce more complex components with traditional methods. Our advanced machining center includes drilling, grinding, milling, polishing, sawing, tapping, threading, and turning, enabling the manufacture of alumina ceramic components with tight tolerances and high complexity. During the machining process, the following precautions should be observed:

Shrinkage Control: Alumina ceramics shrink by about 20% during sintering, requiring dimensional adjustments in the green body stage.
Tolerance Control: Precise tolerances are unachievable in the green or pre-sintered state; fine machining should follow sintering.
Diamond Grinding: Post-sintering, high-hardness alumina requires diamond grinding, as conventional methods fall short.
Tool Selection: Diamond-coated tools or grinding wheels are essential to handle ceramic hardness and prevent tool damage.
Temperature Control: Strict temperature management during sintering prevents cracking or deformation.
Stress Management: Excessive stress during machining must be avoided to prevent brittle failure.
Cutting Speed and Feed Rate: Controlled speeds and feeds ensure quality and extend tool life.
Surface Treatment: Post-machining polishing removes defects, enhancing performance and appearance.

Alumina Ceramic Packaging

Alumina Ceramic products are typically packaged in vacuum-sealed bags to prevent moisture or contamination and wrapped with foam to cushion vibrations and impacts during transport, ensuring the quality of products in their original condition.

Alumina ceramics is a high-performance ceramic material composed of alumina with a purity ranging from 90%~99.9%. It has excellent heat resistance, corrosion resistance, and high hardness, commonly used in industrial components, electronic substrates, and medical devices.

Alumina ceramics offer high strength, wear resistance, high-temperature tolerance (up to 1700 ℃), excellent electrical insulation, and chemical stability, performing exceptionally in harsh conditions.

Alumina crucibles are widely used in high-temperature applications due to their excellent thermal and mechanical properties. The maximum temperature they can withstand depends on the alumina content and the specific operating conditions.

High-purity alumina (99% or above): It can withstand temperatures up to 1750°C in both oxidative and reductive atmospheres. For short-term use, it can endure temperatures up to 1800°C.
Lower-purity alumina (e.g., 85%): Suitable for short-term use at temperatures up to 1400°C, and recommended for long-term use in stable environments with slow temperature changes.
