Ceramic Precision Ball Selection Guide: G Grades, Performance and Applications

Image
In the field of high-end equipment manufacturing, precision spheres are one of the key fundamental components that affect the performance and stability of the equipment. Compared with traditional steel balls, ceramic precision balls, due to their superior physical and chemical properties, are being widely applied in demanding working conditions, such as precision bearings, fluid control systems, and semiconductor equipment, etc.   During the actual selection process, in addition to the material’s own properties, the geometric accuracy of the sphere is also of great significance. During the actual selection process, in addition to the material’s own properties, the geometric accuracy of the sphere is also of great significance. Among them, the common G10, G5, G3, etc. G grades are important indicators for evaluating the precision level of ceramic precision balls.   I. What is a ceramic precision ball?   The ceramic precision balls are high-precision spherical components ma...

Four Main Applications Of Silicon Nitride Ceramics

Image
  1. Application of silicon nitride ceramics in the mechanical field Silicon nitride ceramics  are used in the machinery industry as valves, pipes, classifying wheels, and ceramic cutting tools. The most common use is silicon nitride ceramic bearing balls. Compared with steel balls, silicon nitride ceramic bearing balls have outstanding advantages: low density, high temperature resistance, self-lubricating, and corrosion resistance. They are used in high-speed machine tool electric spindle high-speed bearings, aerospace engines, wind turbine bearings, and automobile engine bearings. Bearings for equipment such as As a high-speed rotating body, the ceramic ball generates centrifugal stress, and the low density of silicon nitride reduces the centrifugal stress on the outer ring of the high-speed rotating body. 2. Application of silicon nitride ceramics in the semiconductor field In addition to superior mechanical properties, silicon nitride ceramics also exhibit a range of excel...

Silicon Nitride Ceramic Weld Location Pins

Image
From:  https://www.innovacera.com/news/silicon-nitride-ceramic-weld-location-pins.html Ceramic materials have long replaced metal in the production of welding pins, which ensure a perfect fit for sheet metal and nuts in projection welding and are subject to temperatures of up to 800°C. Gas-pressure sintered silicon nitride ceramics from INNOVACERA are at a distinct advantage here: Extreme hardness and flexural strength High thermal shock resistance Electrical insulation Temperature resistance High tensile strength and compressive strength Fewer cold welds No welding spatter adhesion Ceramic welding pins made of silicon nitride significantly increase service life and enable high levels of precision and greater accuracy over extended periods in projection welding. Metal welding pins often need to be replaced several times a day due to wear and adhering slag, whereas centering pins made of silicon nitride ceramics only need to be replaced about once a month.
