In today’s rapidly evolving world of technology, lasers have become an essential tool in various industries such as electronics, aerospace, medical, and many more. However, as the demand for more precise and efficient laser technology increases, there is a need for materials that can withstand the demanding conditions. This is where Advanced Ceramic Engineering (ACE) comes in, offering top-quality alumina components and custom-manufactured ceramics for enhanced laser technology.
With over 40 years of experience in the production and design of precision and technical ceramics, ACE has become a leading company in its field, based in Northern Ireland. The company specializes in producing high-grade and purity alumina ceramics, also known as ‘precision ceramics.’ These advanced ceramics are widely used in industries that require high-performance materials that can withstand extreme conditions.
The team at ACE has developed a range of alumina materials to cater to the diverse needs of industries such as electronics, aerospace, chemical processing, and more. These materials are designed to excel in applications such as vacuum and semiconductor equipment, pumps and valves, medical devices, and wear-resistant components.
One of the key factors that make ACE stand out from its competitors is its experienced workforce. Most of the employees at ACE are former employees of Seagoe Ceramics, with over four decades of experience in the industry. This has enabled the company to combine tried and tested methods with the latest innovations, making it a force to be reckoned with in the field of precision and technical ceramics.
The expertise of the ACE team is not limited to just the production of alumina materials. The company also offers custom-manufactured components to fit the specific requirements of its clients. This not only saves time and cost for the customers but also ensures that they receive the best quality products tailored to their needs.
One of the major applications of ACE’s advanced ceramic materials is in laser technology. With the growth of laser technology in various industries, the demand for materials that can withstand the intense heat and pressure has increased. Alumina, being a high-temperature and wear-resistant material, is an ideal choice for components in laser technology. Its stability, strength, and durability make it an essential material for various laser systems, including industrial lasers, medical lasers, and scientific research lasers.
ACE not only offers alumina components for laser technology but also provides a range of services to enhance their performance. These include diamond grinding for improved precision and surface finishes, isostatic pressing for uniform density, and ‘green’ machining for complex shapes
