Ceramic Sintering Advantages

The general properties of ceramic material present the following advantages.

Ceramic sintering advantages.

Sintering happens naturally in mineral deposits or as a manufacturing process used with metals ceramics plastics and other materials the atoms in the materials diffuse across the boundaries of the particles fusing the particles. Cost economy compared with other processes. 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. 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. Ceramic is a polymer coated silicon carbide sic powder that provides exceptional dimensional accuracy because only 20 by volume of the powder is sintered. Stability in the process of big series. The part once created with an sls machine is then fired in a kiln and only the ceramic part survives.

Calcium hydroxyapatite is a material very similar to what makes up your bones. Products ready for assembly. Allows making complex geometries.
