INDUSTRY SECTORS

Instrumentation
We specialise in high precision components for advanced analytical and engineering instrumentation.

Examples include:

• Accurately machined alumina components for electrical insulation. Alumina was chosen as the preferred material as the equipment operated at high temperature and ultra high vacuum
• Prototype and preproduction quantities of complex spacers made from MACOR machinable ceramic. MACOR has a particularly high dielectric strength which is useful for very high voltage application
• Quartz capillary tubing for thermal processing of materials prior to analysis by mass spectrometer
• Purpose made crucibles in unusual materials, used as evaporation sources
• Instrument windows, including X-ray shielding and UV blocking glasses
• Polished alumina balls used in check valves for control of corrosive liquids
