Carpenter Advanced Ceramics is a world leader in the manufacture of high quality Alumina ceramic parts and products. We were the first advanced ceramics manufacturer in the USA to achieve ISO-9002 registration.
Carpenter utilizes state-of-the-art technologies and methods that enable us to manufacture products that meet exacting customer specifications. This includes the ability to routinely achieve tolerances within millionths of an inch, a key distinction between Carpenter Advanced Ceramics and most of its competitors. We are proud to deliver a level of quality and service that consistently meets or exceeds our customers’ requirements.
In addition to manufacturing basic alumina components, Carpenter is fully integrated with respect to the production of metallized alumina components and brazed assemblies. Closely toleranced metallized patterns are routinely produced for use as electrically conductive pathways and for surface preparations for mechanical attachment or hermetic sealing via brazing.
Carpenter produces alumina components of
outstanding value:
- Ceramic components for electrical insulation or isolation
- Hermetic ceramic-to-metal seals for use in
high vacuum applications
- Custom ceramic components produced to extreme
tolerances
- Excellent wear and corrosion resistance
- High and low-temperature glazing
- Lapping (flat and cylindrical surfaces)
- High-purity: 95% to 99.9% Al2O3
Customer Satisfaction
Carpenter’s record for in-full, on-time delivery has set the industry standard. We assign top priority to customer service and technical support, understanding that service before, during and after the sale is of paramount importance to all our customers.
Rapid-Response Prototypes
Carpenter has a dedicated rapid response
capability for the specific purpose of supporting
its customers in the development of new products
and prototypes. Up-to-date CAD/CAM programs,
CNC equipment and highly skilled crafts people
make this a cost-effective and efficient
service for its customers. The fact that
this work is performed in-house allows strong
customer interaction and ultimate satisfaction.
Unlike small ceramic machine shops, Carpenter
can effectively scale up from prototypes
to full-production as opportunities grow.
