Overview

Ceramic substrates are used in many electronic applications where a thin insulating layer of thermally stable material is required to conduct heat away from electronic components whilst electrically insulating them. Materials are alumina, zirconia, aluminum nitride and silicon nitride. Properties include excellent insulation, high mechanical strength, high thermal conductivity, low expansion coefficient, small dielectric constant, high-temperature resistance, excellent erosion and wear resistance, and good quality in chemical shock heat and cold.

Key Benefits

  • Excellent insulation
  • High mechanical strength
  • High thermal conductivity
  • Low expansion coefficient
  • Small dielectric constant
  • High-temperature resistance
  • Excellent erosion and wear resistance

Problems It Solves

  • A polymer insulator softens long before the assembly reaches process temperature.
  • A ceramic to metal joint has to be gas tight and survive thermal cycling.

Application Scenarios

  • Special environment and electronic substrates
  • Pump seals
  • Wear resistant inserts
  • Insulating washers or bushings
  • Semiconductor components
  • Aerospace components
  • Automotive sensors
  • Electrical or electronic insulators

Manufacturing Process

Laser Cutting

Laser cutting of ceramic substrates to form any desired shape (cut-outs, outlines). Tolerance +/-0.02mm. Thickness 0.1-2.0mm. Max dimension 150*200mm.

Laser Drilling

Laser drilling of the smallest hole diameters in trepanning or percussion mode. Microvias with diameters down to 100um. Tolerance +/-0.02mm. Min drilling diameter 0.1mm.

Laser Scribing

Laser scribing to generate a defined break line, perforation or groove, for singulation of the substrates. Laser pulse depth 0.1-0.5mm. Max drilling thickness 1.5mm.

Laser Marking

Laser marking to leave permanent marks on the part, including colour change due to chemical or molecular alteration, charring, foaming, melting and ablation.

Quality Control

We promise to provide quality assurance for all products. Parts are inspected according to your drawings and we issue an inspection report with the shipment.

We follow standard packaging protocols to protect your products during transit and provide photographic documentation of the packing and shipping process for your reference. In the event of transportation damage caused by non-human factors, we arrange a free replacement shipment.

From raw material preparation, forming, surface grinding, internal and external diameter grinding, to precision CNC machining, all processes are carried out in house under strict quality control.

Customisation Options

  • Size and shape made to your drawing
  • Material grade selected against the duty rather than assumed
  • Surface finish, including ground and polished faces
  • Colour where the material allows it
  • Metallizing and plating where the part has to braze into an assembly

Our main business is OEM and ODM. Send your drawing over WhatsApp or email and we will quote the part.

Use Guide

  1. Confirm the fit before you order volumeTake a free sample first. Samples ship in 4 to 7 working days and we do not charge for the part, only the freight.
  2. Give the critical dimension a toleranceCeramic is ground to size after sintering. Marking one dimension as critical is cheaper than treating them all as critical.
  3. Handle by the body, not the edgeCeramic is hard but it chips. Zirconia tolerates handling far better than alumina because its fracture toughness is more than twice as high.
  4. Tell us the duty, not just the shapeTemperature, fluid, load, speed, and whether the part has to insulate or stay non-magnetic, all change which grade we would quote.
