Ultra-High Wear Resistance Silicon Nitride Ceramics For Precision Instruments

Ultra-High Wear Resistance Silicon Nitride Ceramics For Precision Instruments

Introduction
Silicon nitride ceramic guideway spacers are precision ceramic functional components made from high-purity silicon nitride (Si₃N₄) material through advanced sintering processes. This product combines the excellent mechanical properties of silicon nitride ceramic with unique self-lubricating characteristics, featuring extremely high hardness, outstanding wear resistance, and exceptional corrosion resistance. Specifically designed for high-precision guideway systems, it effectively reduces friction coefficient, minimizes wear, improves equipment positioning accuracy, and extends service life, making it an ideal choice for high-end equipment manufacturing.

Applications
Widely used in various high-precision, high-demand guideway systems:

• CNC Machine Tools: Precision guideway sliders, feed system spacers

• Automation Equipment: Industrial robot guideways, linear module spacers

• Precision Instruments: Measuring equipment guideways, optical instrument positioning spacers

• Semiconductor Equipment: Wafer transfer system guideway spacers

• Medical Equipment: Medical imaging equipment precision moving parts

Advantages

1. Ultra-High Wear Resistance: Vickers hardness ≥1650HV, wear resistance is more than 10 times that of bearing steel

2. Self-Lubricating Properties: Friction coefficient as low as 0.1-0.2, reducing lubrication requirements

3. High Precision Maintenance: Low thermal expansion coefficient, excellent dimensional stability

4. Strong Corrosion Resistance: Resistant to various chemical media corrosion

5. Lightweight Design: Density only 3.2g/cm³, reducing movement inertia
