Alumina Ceramics: The Powerhouse Choice for High-Performance Pump and Valve Parts
When it comes to industries that require high-performance machinery, such as aerospace, electronics, and chemical processing, the components used must meet the highest standards of quality and durability. That’s where Advanced Ceramic Engineering (ACE) comes in. With over 40 years of experience in the production and design of precision and technical ceramics, this Northern Ireland based company is a leader in the field of alumina ceramics.
But what exactly are alumina ceramics and why are they the go-to choice for high-performance pump and valve parts?
Alumina ceramics, also known as advanced or engineered ceramics, are a type of technical ceramic made from alumina, a high-grade and purity material. This unique material gives alumina ceramics their exceptional properties, making them the ideal choice for demanding industrial applications.
One of the main reasons alumina ceramics are preferred for pump and valve parts is their exceptional wear and corrosion resistance. These components are often subjected to harsh chemicals and abrasive environments, and regular materials simply can’t withstand these conditions. Alumina ceramics, on the other hand, can withstand extreme temperatures, pressures, and corrosive substances without losing their strength or shape.
In addition to their chemical and wear resistance, alumina ceramics are also known for their high mechanical strength and toughness. This makes them ideal for use in high-pressure systems, such as pumps and valves, where strong and reliable components are crucial.
But what truly sets ACE apart is their expertise in producing alumina bodies for high-grade and purity alumina ceramics. This allows them to cater to diverse service conditions required by various industries. They have developed a wide range of alumina materials, including different grades and particle sizes, to meet the specific needs of their clients.
Moreover, ACE offers custom manufacturing services, allowing their customers to get tailor-made alumina components that perfectly fit their requirements. This further highlights ACE’s commitment to meeting the unique needs of each industry they serve.
But that’s not all – ACE’s team is composed mostly of former employees of the renowned Seagoe Ceramics plant, with some of them having over four decades of experience in the field. This means that along with the latest innovations and advanced techniques, they also bring their tried and trusted methods to the table. This combination of experience and innovation makes ACE a formidable and cutting-edge company in the world of precision and technical ceramics.
