Sealing technology in mechanical engineering

In devices and systems for industry, the medical environment and the consumer goods sector, ceramic sealing and control technology has a positive impact on productivity, reliability, durability and operating costs in many applications.

Ceram Tec'c wide range of materials is available for the use of high-performance ceramics in machine and device construction, depending on the specific application. For many application-specific requirements, such as electrical insulation, thermal conductivity, strength, coefficient of expansion or a combination of these, we recommend the optimum material and develop your individual ceramic solution based on this.

Whether aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, zirconium oxide or silicon nitride - ceramic materials combine very good stability and chemical resistance to aggressive media that flow through the components under high pressure and at high temperatures. Components made from these materials therefore are designed to meet even the strictest requirements in terms of functionality, long service life and also cost efficiency in plant, device and mechanical engineering.

Powerful and Unique

Sliding Rings for Tribological Applications made of SiC

CeramTec specializes in the manufacture of seal rings for the most demanding applications such as compressor seals, gas seals, water turbines, marine propulsion systems (classic and also jet propulsion systems). The ROCAR® monolithic rings for sealing ship shafts with a diameter of over 1,000 mm are unique in the world.

FDA-approved and long-lasting

Ceramic Components for the Process and Food Industry

When other materials reach their limits, have a short service life or are out of the question - for example in the case of corrosion, abrasion, high temperatures or pressure stress - silicon carbide comes into play. Our material ROCAR® silicon carbide is certified by the FDA for direct contact with food.

Extreme Hardness and Outstanding Heat Resistance

Bearing Rollers for Industrial Installations

Due to high wear and temperature resistance and low specific weight, Cyrol rolling bearings made of silicon nitride are ideally suited for high-maintenance rolling bearing applications - from machines in the chemical industry to wind turbines.
