Welcome to a New Generation of Materials
KA-EDM
Ceramic Matrix Electroconductive Alumina Composite
Electroconductive Alumina Composite (KA-EDM) is manufactured by pressure-assisted sintering (SPS). It is a high toughness electroconductive alumina based composite and suitable for EDM machining. The main properties of KA-EDM are: Suitability for extreme hardness applications, very good dimensional stability, excellent chemical resistance in the most demanding environments.

- Density - 4.2 g/cm³ at 20 °C
- Elastic modulus - 390 GPa at 20 °C
- Flexural strength - 700 MPa at 20 °C
- Plane-Strain Fracture Toughness - 7 - 9 MPa·√m at 20 °C
- Thermal conductivity - 35 W/(m·K) at 20 °C
- Electrical resistivity - 3.15E-5 Ω·m at 20 °C
- CTE (between 40 and 900 ºC) - 7.7·10-6 K-1



Oxidic Ceramic Materials for Extrusion Dies
KZY-1000 (Circona-Itria totally established)
KZM Circonia – Mg parcially established
Formats
NANOKER makes round dies but other forms are equally possible (rectangular, oval, square, hexagonal). The minimum – maximum dimensions we can offer are an internal diameter of 2 mm and an outter diameter of 120 mm. We are at disposal of the customers to understand their needs and provide the best possible solution.
