CERAMICS LASER CUTTING
Technical Ceramic laser micro cutting and laser micro hole drilling by Avonisys waterjet laser technology is well suited for precise and chipping-free cutting of a variety of technical ceramics, such as AlN, B4C, SiC, SiN, TiN, Graphite, Ceramic Composites, Metal Ceramic Composites, Ceramic Matrix Compisites and more. The Avonisys process eliminates tool wear or tool breakage risks. Contact us today with your specific request or application idea. We are happy to help!
Overview:
➤ Material: technical ceramics
➤ Processing: good edge quality / no cutting or drilling tool wear
➤ Typical cutting thickness: 0,5 - 10 mm
Processing Examples:
➤ Coring & part singulation
➤ (Micro-) hole drilling
MACHINING EXAMPLES
RELATED MACHINING VIDEOS
SILICON CARBIDE LASER CUTTING
SiC is typically a touch material to machine. In this video we show freeform laser cutting of various tiny, sharp and high-aspect features in 5mm thick SiSiC material.
THICK SILICON HOLE DRILLING
In this video we showcase drilling of 100 deep parallel holes into an 8mm thick Silicon disc. Unlike mechanical drilling there is no tool wear or breakage risk.
77H NON-STOP “HARD-CORING”
In this video we showcase the longest ever recorded non-stop waterjet laser cutting job to date, while cutting hundreds of thick carbide ceramic rods with micron precision and finish.
12MM SILICON CARBIDE CUTTING
This video showcases the high-aspect cutting capabilities for thick Silicon Carbide material (in this case a sintered SSiC material of approx. 1/2” thickness).
