Diabase is more expensive than granite, but the mechanical properties of diabase are significantly better and the water absorption is much lower. Precision Granite Although not as dimensionally stable as diabase, precision granite is a cost effective material choice for machine bases and metrology components. We provide solutions in a variety of precision granites including Swedish granites, Jinan Black (China) and Impala Black (South Africa). Glass Ceramics Glass ceramics are extremely low expansion materials ideal for ultra-high precision applications. Some glass ceramics can be tailored to be an optimal fit with the designed operating temperature of the application. We have particular expertise in machining Zerodur, one of the most stable glass ceramics. Glass ceramics are complicated to machine, but they also need expertise in their handling, as they are brittle, sensitive to chipping and hard-wearing on the machine tools themselves. Optical Glass We provide machined components in borosilicate glass, fused silica and other types of advanced glass to a number of sectors. Precision Aluminium Aluminium is a highly versatile material, but due to its thermal and mechanical properties it is not the most dimensionally stable material. We have developed machining and lapping strategies from our machining of diabase and glass ceramics that allow us to achieve very high levels of accuracy in complex aluminium geometries. Ceramics Ceramics such as Aluminium Oxide and Aluminium Nitride are ideal for the global casting industry where heat resistance is the key factor, but also for other industries where dimensional stability or other specific characteristics are key. Steel and Steel Castings Precision is our core expertise and clients in different high technology sectors come to us for precision machining of steel and steel castings. Often this complements the work we carry out for them in other materials. Our know-how combined with our unique set of large machines make us an ideal partner for machining steel and steel castings. Other Advanced Materials Microbas has experience of machining a range of alloys, such as Invar and Titanium, for different applications. Invar is an ultra low expansion alloy that is often used together with glass ceramics such as Zerodur. Titanium is often used in alloys within aerospace technology, as well as in the manufacture of implants intended for the human body. We welcome working with clients with applications using new materials.
