Our engineers design assemblies to take advantage of the unique properties of each material and combine them to produce a component with a higher performance than one made from either material on its own. Ceramic-to-metal brazed assemblies are manufactured to provide high mechanical strength and good electrical insulation. Our brazed assemblies are hermetic and able to maintain ultra-high levels of vacuum and joint integrity even at elevated temperatures and in harsh environments. Materials used in brazed assemblies include: Alumina materials – AL300®, Sintox FF and Deranox 995, A950, AL-998®, AL-300®, AL-500®, synthetic rubies/sapphire, ZTA Higher performance ceramics – Yittria stabilised zirconia, ZTA, Si3N4, sapphire, CVD SiC, and composite materials such as C-SiC Conventional brazing materials (copper, gold, silver, precious metal eutectics) for metallised alumina or active braze alloys (ABA) from a biocompatibility requirement, to an ‘above superalloy melt temperature’. Metals - OFHC copper, stainless steels, mild steels, monel, kovar, nickel and titanium super alloys, platinum, platinum iridium, niobium, tungsten Glazes for contamination protection or to facilitate cleaning Typical applications include: Feedthroughs for active medical implants Electrosurgical instrumentation Implantable packages and feedthroughs Composite honeycomb panels Mass spectrometry Gas detectors Microscopes (TEM, SEM) Particle accelerators Nuclear detectors High voltage feedthrough for X-ray equipment, scanners and imaging applications for medical Sensors, satellite propulsion and engine management for aerospace, Optoelectronics and power tubes Gas lasers Deep sea repeaters Rechargeable batteries for energy storage RF feedthroughs Electrical feedthroughs Pinch off tubes for lasers Application Examples Ceramic components and brazed assemblies are increasingly used in aero engines operating at higher temperatures, where conventional materials are not suitable. They can be used to help improve engine efficiency and reduce gas emissions. We have been designing and manufacturing high voltage feedthroughs for diagnostic equipment for over 60 years. These brazed assemblies are manufactured using high purity alumina and feature a high level of cleanliness. For our medical divison and metallising areas this is achieve via two dedicated clean-rooms.
