CNC Machining Workshop

After the ceramic green bodies undergo drying/curing and before entering the sintering furnace, the CNC Machining Workshop performs precision machining on the unsintered bodies. Leveraging the low hardness and good machinability of the green body at this stage, complex geometric structures are pre-formed efficiently, significantly reducing post-sintering machining costs and the risk of chipping/fracture.

CNC Machining Center

Used for high-precision,multi-process integrated machining of complex parts. Utilizes an Automatic Tool Changer(ATC)and multi-axis linkage control to complete milling, drilling, tapping, and other processes in a single setup.Technical Advantage :Positioning accuracy <=0.005mm, meeting micron-level tolerance requirements for aerospace engine components,medical implants,etc.

The Two Stages of Ceramic Processing

Ceramic processing usually involves two stages: Rough machining and precision machining.  Raw machining removes excess material to achieve approximate shapes and sizes, precision machining focuses on tight tolerance, smooth surface and detailed geometric shapes. They work together to ensure the processing efficiency and final product quality.


1. Rough machining process: efficient forming and excess control Core target: quickly remove 90% of the processing excess from the green body and avoid the risk of brittle fracture.
