Technical ceramics are the ideal choice for fluid technology applications as they offer a combination of corrosion resistance, wear resistance and chemical resistance. These properties enable precise conveying, controlling and dosing of fluids - even under extreme conditions.
High-performance components for fluid technology
Fluid technology places the highest demands on materials to ensure smooth operation and maximum efficiency. Components made of technical ceramics offer numerous advantages:
- Corrosion resistance: Ideal for aggressive media in chemical applications.
- Wear resistance: Longer service life thanks to high abrasion resistance.
- Dimensional stability: Precise performance even at high operating pressures and temperatures.
- Biocompatibility: Safe use in the food industry and medical technology.
Another plus point: The low specific weight of the ceramic components contributes to energy efficiency.
