Steelceram is constantly developing products to improve the efficiency of our customers' production processes. Therefore, we carry out studies to be able to comply with quality and durability standards in our products. In the world of metrology, we have developed…
The characteristics of ceramic materials define the behaviour of the material in different situations such as: Resistance to temperature, capacity for electrical insulation and resistance to corrosion. It’s important to have a good knowledge of the characteristics of these materials…
The mechanical properties of materials are those that define their behaviour when exposed to external forces. There are several types of external forces capable of generating mechanical responses in materials, for example, tensile, compressive and torsional forces. It is important…
Alumina (aluminium oxide -Al2O3-) is a ceramic with a crystalline structure that makes it extremely hard. It is currently considered one of the most cost-effective and widely used ceramic materials. Alumina 95 and Alumina 995 are some of the materials…
Technical ceramics have excellent mechanical strength, high hardness, wear resistance, high temperature resistance and relatively low density. In terms of conductivity, it is an excellent material as an electrical and thermal insulator. After a thermal shock, i.e. the sudden heating…
The automotive sector is keeping up with innovation by using advanced technical ceramics to generate changes that improve performance both in its production processes and in the specific components of new generation vehicles. Some of its applications for manufacturing processes…
Interview with Carlos García, Technical Director of Steelceram, Industrial Engineer, MS and MBA Carlos grew up among the ceramic bricks/tiles of the family business near the famous catalan mountains of Montserrat. Little did he imagine while studying industrial engineering…
In the welding industry it is necessary to ensure good positioning of jigs and gauges to meet the tolerances required in each process. When the parts that ensure the necessary position, the positioners, are made of advanced technical ceramics, in…
