  • Swedish ceramic inserts are heat-resistant

    Swedish ceramic inserts are heat-resistant

    Solution: Correctly applied ceramic insert grades offer a powerful alternative. One important subgroup are the Inconel alloys, typically used for high-temperature applications in. Our Secomax™ ceramic insert grades provide optimized wear resistance and toughness when cutting parts from heat-resistant superalloys, such as Inconel, MAR, RENE, Nimonic and Waspaloy, at high speeds. In fact, the high-speed capabilities of ceramics result in metal removal rates that are four to. Because ceramic blades are resistant to high temperatures, they are more conducive to high-temperature and high-speed cutting.


  • Is the ceramic ferrule strong in terms of metal elasticity

    Is the ceramic ferrule strong in terms of metal elasticity

    The elastic modulus (Young's Modulus) of ceramics is usually higher than for metals, because ceramics are bonded either covalently or ionically. Glasses have a lower modulus than other ceramics due to their non-uniform (amorphous). Ferrule materials determine the mechanical precision, optical alignment, thermal stability, and long-term reliability of fiber optic connectors. A ferrule's job is to hold the fiber core in perfect concentric alignment while maintaining extremely tight tolerances according to IEC 61755, IEC 61300. Technical ceramics are characterised by a high level of hardness compared to typical metallic materials. They are designed to be inserted into or around another component to provide a protective sleeve, guide, or housing.
