have been discussed. Moreover, partners agreed over some technical aspects and future dissemination activities. At the end of the talks, participants had the chance to visit THN laboratories and Pilot Line to see the progress of the project and the activities daily run by the researchers. Highftech (HFT) is one of the end users in the industrial team carrying on Lightcoce project. The main goal of HFT job is to study new ceramic application on filling valve for space field.

MACOR®: machined ceramic parts

seositi — Sat, 17 Jun 2017 14:32:46 +0000

MACOR® is a machinable ceramic produced by Corning. HFT has gained considerable experience with the machining of this material on its 5-axis CNC machines and can therefore produce the parts you need quickly and cost-effectively.

This material offers a unique combination of properties unlike any other technical material: it is white, odourless with no offgassing and zero porosity, and allows mirror-like surface finishes with centesimal dimensional tolerances. It remains constant up to 800 °C, but can even reach 1000 °C under load for a relatively short time without creep phenomena or plastic deformation. It has low coefficients of thermal expansion even at high temperatures and is an excellent electrical insulator.

Here you can download the material data.

The following photos show some applications made by HFT. For additional information please contact us.
