Precision Ceramic Parts Manufacturing Service

CIM is a technique where ceramic powder mixed with a polymer binder is injected into a mold. This process is similar to plastic injection molding and allows for exact production of complex shapes. After molding, the parts undergo a binder removal process, then sintering at high temperatures. The sintering process densifies the material, resulting in parts with excellent mechanical properties. CIM achieves tolerances within ±0.5% of the dimension, making it ideal for intricate components used in the medical, aerospace, and automotive industries. The process supports high-volume production, maintaining consistency and quality across batches.

Ceramic Hot Pressing involves applying pressure and heat simultaneously to the ceramic powder within a mold. This process allows for the densification of the ceramic material without the need for a binder, leading to parts with very high density and superior mechanical properties. Hot pressing can achieve near-theoretical density levels, making the parts produced extremely hard and wear-resistant. However, the shapes achievable through hot pressing are generally simpler than CIM, with tolerances around ±1%. This method is well-suited for applications requiring high material strength, such as ballistic armor and cutting tools.
