Wear-resistant ceramics, also known as modern ceramics, mainly comprise high-purity alumina. Because their toughness and hardness are much higher than ordinary daily-use ceramics, they can be used as wear-resistant materials in industrial equipment.
As an industrial wear-resistant material, wear-resistant ceramics have good wear and corrosion resistance. Still, because of their relatively high hardness, which is close to the hardness of diamonds, it isn't easy to reprocess wear-resistant ceramics. Let's get to know the processing technology of wear-resistant ceramics.
The processing technology of wear-resistant ceramics has the following three categories according to the processing method:
1. Surface treatment: Use diamond grinding discs to grind wear-resistant ceramics or use sandpaper to polish the surface of wear-resistant ceramics;
2. Cutting treatment: Because the hardness of wear-resistant ceramics is relatively high, ordinary cutting machines cannot cut ceramics, and special equipment such as diamond cutting discs or ultrasonic waves, lasers, and water jets are required for cutting treatment;
3. Surface marking: using photolithography technology or etching technology through chemical or physical means to make wear-resistant ceramics form concave-convex or hollow-out molding effects;
4. Wear-resistant ceramics are difficult-to-process materials, which cannot be processed in general machining workshops. The processing of wear-resistant ceramics generally requires special processing tools and processing techniques, so it is a better choice for professionals to operate and process.
