    Céramiques de carbure de silicium pour la métrologie

    Les produits SiSiC et NSiC de Saint-Gobain Performance Ceramics & Refractories garantissent une précision, performance et rapidité élevées dans les équipements de métrologie industrielle, notamment :

    • CMM et équipement de positionnement
    • Ponts MMT
    • Axe z
    • Rails de guidage
    • Étages à coussin d'air

    Le carbure de silicium offre de nombreux avantages par rapport aux matériaux céramiques traditionnels, en particulier céramique d'alumine, aluminium, acier et granit. Ceux-ci inclus:

    • Léger (~ 20% de moins)
    • Rigidité spécifique élevée (~ 25% plus élevée)
    • Faible dilatation thermique (~ 50% de moins)
    • Haute stabilité thermique

  • Key Benefits of Ceramics for Metrology

    The ceramic solutions from Saint-Gobain Refractories are engineered to meet the demanding requirements of metrology applications, delivering benefits that improve both accuracy and system performance:

    • Thermal Stability for Accuracy: Our ceramics resist thermal expansion, ensuring consistent measurements even under changing temperatures.
       
    • High Rigidity for Stability: Superior stiffness minimizes deformation, a critical feature for CMM and motion control systems to maintain precise positioning and alignment.
       
    • Exceptional Durability: With excellent wear resistance, our materials reduce maintenance needs and ensure long-term operational reliability.
       
    • Lightweight Efficiency: Lighter than metals but equally strong, our ceramics improve system responsiveness and reduce energy consumption in motion control applications.

    These properties ensure that every measurement and movement meets the exacting standards required by advanced metrology equipment.
     

    We offer a range of specialty ceramics designed specifically for high-accuracy metrology and motion control equipment.

    Silicon Carbide (SiC) Ceramics:

    • Properties: Exceptional thermal stability, stiffness, and resistance to wear.
    • Applications: Commonly utilized in CMM frames and structural components to maintain dimensional stability under stress and temperature fluctuations.
