Precision CNC machine of ceramic components for high sensitive mass spectrometer

Ceramics are increasingly used for many application in modern industries, due to their desirable functional and structural properties. However, due to the stringent requirements for such applications, conventional methods of forming and sintering are unable to meet them. The need to use shaping proc...
