Ceramic Sintering Advantages

Sintering or frittage is the process of compacting and forming a solid mass of material by heat or pressure without melting it to the point of liquefaction.

Ceramic sintering advantages. Good mechanical characteristics. Sintering allows to obtain complex shapes directly from the compacting tooling without any machining operation like teeth splines profiles frontal geometries etc. While commonly related to powder processing of ceramic parts its important roles in other processes such as additive manufacturing nanotechnology and thin films are less commonly discussed. Stability in the process of big series.

Sintering is a ubiquitous processing step for manufacturing ceramics for a diverse set of applications. High wear heat pressure and chemical attack resistance gas and liquids. Calcium hydroxyapatite is a material very similar to what makes up your bones. Cost economy compared with other processes.

Products ready for assembly. Ceramic is a polymer coated silicon carbide sic powder that provides exceptional dimensional accuracy because only 20 by volume of the powder is sintered. The part once created with an sls machine is then fired in a kiln and only the ceramic part survives.
