Innovacera Ceramic Rapid Prototyping Services For OEM Ceramic Parts

Rapid prototyping of OEM ceramic parts helps the wait time reduced and economical shorter runs. For some researched & developed projects, the resultant parts may reveal some design changes that would otherwise mean adjusting or even scrapping tooling had it been required, rapid prototyping can save developing time and project cost. Rapid prototyping ceramic components also provide a means to produce a low quantity of OEM parts at a reasonable cost and produce time, working directly from your CAD file.

Innovacera provides ceramics rapid prototyping service, this allows you to validate your new designs whether are workable or not before committing to expensive new tooling.

We can process your ceramic part through your CAD or SolidWorks design files by our precision CNC machining center to cut your custom components from a blank made from our specially developed machinable alumina ceramic, zirconia ceramic, silicon nitride, aluminum nitride, boron nitride, and machinable glass-ceramic materials. Blanks are usually available from Innovacera stock so that items can be produced quickly; this also allows a fast turn-around of design changes where product optimization is carried out.

Innovacera also provides one-stop service from prototype to low volume production. Innovacera factories have hot press dring, CIP, dress press, ceramic injection molding, CNC machining, and other processes to support low volume production.

The application of ceramic rapid prototyping was motivated by the advances in engineering ceramics and traditional ceramics where methods of creating complex shapes are limited. Ceramics have many outstanding physical and chemical properties and attract lots of researchers’ attention to find new industrial applications for this kind of material such as components used in semiconductor, laser, vacuum, analysis, thin film deposition equipment parts, sensor part and electrical insulator part and so on.

Pyrolytic Boron Nitride (PBN) Ring for OLED and MBE Effusion Cell

Pyrolytic Boron Nitride (PBN) is a kind of advanced ceramic, that can be produced with 99.99% purity in high density. It is made by ammonia and Boron halide through Chemical Vapor deposition(CVD) process in high temperature and high vacuum conditions: NH3 + BX3 = BN + 3HX, it can be produced as PBN plates, and also can be produced as PBN final products directly like a crucible, boat, coating, etc.

The heating element is constructed from alloy filament supported by a PBN ring which provides excellent temperature uniformity within the crucible, high heating efficiency even at the crucible lip. Crucibles are easily replaced.

Ceramic Solutions for Electrical Insulation

Insulating ceramics, also known as device ceramics, are ceramic materials used in electronic equipment to install, fix, support, protect, insulate, isolate and connect various radio components and devices.

In electronic technology, the insulating material is required to be non-conductive, that is, the resistivity is required to be as high as possible, and the dielectric strength is also required to be as high as possible. Alumina, on the other hand, is an electrically insulating material with high resistivity, which increases with purity.

The good chemical stability of alumina results in high corrosion resistance. Insoluble in water, only slightly soluble in strong acid and strong alkali solutions. Tests have shown that the low chemical solubility of the alumina ceramic component makes it highly resistant to chemical corrosion.

High voltage devices not only need insulators to accommodate the current but also insulators to not interfere with the current.

Innovacera manufactures metalized ceramics and ceramic insulators for high voltage applications. The feedstocks are 95% alumina, 96% alumina, and 99% alumina. Can be customized according to customer requirements.

How to make HTCC ceramic heater?

INNOVACERA specializes in producing ceramic heating elements, which are first printed with tungsten metal on a ceramic casting body and then sintered together through hot-pressed lamination under the protection of 1600°C hydrogen atmosphere. The components have the advantages of corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, long service life, high efficiency and energy saving, uniform temperature, good thermal conductivity, fast thermal compensation, etc. They do not contain lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl ether, polybrominated diphenyl ether, and other harmful substances, and meet the requirements of RoHS, REACH, and other environmental protection requirements. Meanwhile, HTCC ceramic heating element is an environment-friendly and energy-saving heating element. Compared with PTC ceramic heating element, it has the advantage of saving 20 ~ 30% of electric energy under the same efficiency of heating. HTCC Ceramic heaters are widely used in welding platforms, electric soldering iron, automotive oxygen sensor, intelligent toilet, and other electrical equipment.

Industrial Application And Properties Of Aluminum Nitride Ceramics

What is aluminum nitride (AlN)?

Aluminum nitride (AlN) is an interesting material. If high thermal conductivity is required, it is one of the best materials. Combined with its excellent electrical insulation, aluminum nitride is an ideal radiator material for many electrical and electronic applications.

Characteristics of aluminum nitride

Aluminum nitride is a (mainly) covalently bonded material with a hexagonal crystal structure, which is isomorphic with one of the polytype zinc sulfides called wurtzite. The space group of this structure is P63mc.

The material is stable at very high temperatures in an inert atmosphere. In the air, surface oxidation occurs above 700°C, and a surface oxide layer of 5-10nm is detected even at room temperature. This oxide layer protects the material at temperatures up to 1370°C. Above this temperature, bulk oxidation will occur. Aluminum nitride is stable in hydrogen and carbon dioxide atmospheres up to 980°C.

The material is slowly dissolved in inorganic acid by grain boundary erosion and dissolved in strong alkali by erosion of aluminum nitride grains. The material is slowly hydrolyzed in water. Aluminum nitride is resistant to most molten salts, including chloride and cryolite.

Aluminum nitride is synthesized by carbothermal reduction of alumina or direct nitridation of aluminum. Sintering aids and hot pressing are needed to produce dense industrial grade materials.

Application of aluminum nitride

The metallization method enables aluminum nitride to be used in electronic applications similar to alumina and beryllium oxide.

At present, many studies have used gallium nitride based semiconductors to develop light-emitting diodes operating under ultraviolet light, and it has been reported that alloy aluminum gallium nitride is used with a wavelength as short as 250 nm. In May 2006, an inefficient led emission of 210 nm was reported. The band gap measurement of single crystal AlN (using vacuum ultraviolet reflectivity) is 6.2 eV. In principle, this allows a wavelength of about 200 nm to be achieved. However, if such a transmitter is to become a commercial reality, there are still many difficulties to overcome.

Industrial use of aluminum nitride applications includes dielectric layers in photoelectric and optical storage media, electronic substrates and chip carriers with high thermal conductivity, and military applications.

Due to the piezoelectric properties of aluminum nitride, epitaxially grown crystalline aluminum nitride is also used in surface acoustic wave sensors (SAW) deposited on silicon wafers.

Pyrolytic Boron Nitride (PBN) Filament Rings

PBN can be heated to 2300°C under ultra-high vacuum without decomposition, has high purity, more than 99.99%, does not release gas impurities and other excellent characteristics at high temperatures, these characteristics make PBN can be processed into different shapes.

Pyrolytic Boron Nitride (PBN) is frequently used to make filament rings to hold Ta wire in MBE equipment, due to its high working temperature and vacuum property. INNOVACERA can be customized according to the size, and Filament Rings are usually held in plastic bags by vacuum, and protected with heavy foam.
