What Is Metallized Ceramics?
Metallized ceramics are ceramic materials with metal coatings or layers bonded to their surfaces through specialized processes. This creates components that combine ceramic’s insulating and thermal properties with metal’s conductivity, enabling reliable metal-to-ceramic seals in electronic and industrial applications.
AT-Machining 2022 has been carrying out long-term technical cooperation with a number of research institutes and universities, and has unique technological advantages in the fields of high-quality ceramic sintering, ceramic precision machining, ceramic metallization, ceramic-metal brazing, and vacuum-applied welding. The company can provide systematic solutions for customers’ needs.
How to Manufacturing Metallized Ceramics component?
Metallized ceramics manufacturing involves precision CNC machining of ceramic substrates, followed by applying metallic layers through processes like molybdenum-manganese metallization or physical vapor deposition. The components undergo high-temperature sintering to create strong metal-ceramic bonds, surface finishing, and quality inspection to ensure proper adhesion and electrical conductivity for various electronic and industrial applications.
