What Are Technical Ceramics

With over 116 years of ceramic manufacturing experience superior technical ceramics can be your partner in the design and production of specialized ceramic solutions.

What are technical ceramics.

Technical ceramics from ceramtec can be divided into four major groups of ceramic materials. We offer a wide range of advanced ceramic and glass materials in depth materials expertise and vast applications experience in a broad range of markets. With over 60 years of experience we offer a wide variety of materials available for antenna applications. Silicate ceramics are the oldest type of ceramic materials for technical applications and are made primarily from natural raw materials in conjunction with alumina aluminum oxide.

It is characterized by specific properties mainly with regards to heat resistance mechanical stability and dimensional stability. For example many technical ceramics can withstand extremely high loads ranging from 1000 to 4000 mpa. Atc provides component and custom integrated packaging solutions for the rf microwave and telecommunications industries atc designs develops manufactures and markets multilayer capacitors single layer capacitors resistive products inductors and custom thin film products for rf microwave and millimeter wave applications. Our facility is equipped with a modern plant to produce components from our own formulated powder compositions to finished parts in an expeditious manner.

Technical ceramics technical ceramics also called high performance ceramics are a material that in contrast to decorative ceramics has been optimized for technical and industrial applications. Silicate ceramics oxide ceramics non oxide ceramics and piezo ceramics. Technical ceramics quality products start with leco ceramics. We design and manufacture advanced technical ceramics components from a portfolio of cutting edge materials.

For more than 50 years leco has provided top quality ceramic products to industries worldwide such as technical ceramics powdered metal pm metal injection molders mim and foundry and investment casting. Technical ceramics have very high strength however this is only when compressed. These include our entire suite of dielectric materials d 125 d 73xx d 9000 and the mct series as well as hexagonal ferrites for high frequency magneto dielectric antennas.

Titanium on the other hand which is regarded as a very strong metal only has 1000 mpa of compressional strength.
