Ceramic Media
Ceramic abrasive media is a hard and durable material used in vibratory finishing processes to deburr, polish, and descale ferrous & hard materials. It comes in a variety of shapes, sizes, and cutting capabilities, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
Low
Low abrasive ceramic chips are often used for polishing and radiusing parts. It is also a good choice for deburring parts with delicate features.
Medium
Medium cutting abrasive media is often used for deburring parts with moderate contaminants. It is also a good choice for polishing parts with a medium level of brightness.
Course
Course ceramic media is often used for deburring parts with heavy contaminants, and is designed to help reduce process times, It is also a good choice for removal of heavy scale and rust.
Benefits of Ceramic Abrasive Media
- Hard and durable: Ceramic abrasive media is very hard and durable, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
- Cutting efficiency: Ceramic abrasive media is very efficient at cutting on Ferrous and Nonferrous metals, plastic, and other materials.
- Non-rusting: Ceramic abrasive media does not rust, so it can be used in a variety of applications, even those where moisture is present.
Applications of Ceramic Type Abrasive Media
- Automotive: Used to deburr, polish, and descale automotive components, such as engine blocks, pistons and crankshafts.
- Aerospace: Used to deburr, polish and descale aerospace components, such as turbine blades, and landing gear.
- Medical: Used to deburr, polish and descale medical devices, such as implants, surgical instruments, and prosthetics.
- Electronics: Used to deburr, polish, and descale electronic components, such as circuit boards, connectors, and semiconductors.
- Other industries: Used in a variety of other industries, such as food processing, metalworking, and woodworking.
