[Performance Introduction] Measures for Longevity Using Ceramics
By changing metal parts to ceramics, significant improvements in lifespan are expected. Here are some examples of improvements.
Ceramics are lightweight materials with excellent wear resistance and corrosion resistance compared to metals, and their adoption is progressing for extending the lifespan of equipment parts and addressing wear issues. By replacing metal components of equipment with ceramics such as silicon carbide or silicon nitride, the lifespan of the parts is extended, significantly reducing maintenance work for part replacements. JFC offers a lineup of five types of silicon carbide and two types of silicon nitride. Silicon nitride SNP03 is a high-strength type with enhanced fracture toughness and bending strength compared to the standard SNP02. Please consider JFC's ceramics for the long lifespan of your equipment parts. *For more details, please download the catalog. Additionally, JFC also manufactures and sells composite materials made of ceramics and metals. For example, SA701, featured in the PDF materials, is a composite of SiC ceramics and aluminum. It is effective when a material that is resistant to cracking is required.
