TECHNICAL CERAMICS FOR INDUSTRIAL ELECTRIC FURNACES<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_media_grid element_width=”3″ gap=”25″ grid_id=”vc_gid:1631614083880-4fedd85e-9ef5-4″ include=”1505,1504″][vc_column_text]SIM S.r.l.\u00a0<\/strong>is a company specialized in the manufacturing of technical ceramics for high temperatures. These products are used in several industries, such as: ceramics, jewelry, dental equipment, nonferrous alloy foundries, metallurgy, glass, food and petrochemical. With these technical ceramics, we produce pipes, tubes, supporting plates, pressed\/extruded and cast shaped materials.<\/p>\n

The production run is carried out on three different processing: extrusion (pipes and tubes), pressing (plates, hollow tiles, circular sectors) and casting (molded parts of any shapes, non-mechanically feasible). Innovative is also the under-vacuum casting department by means of de-pressurized tanks, to make mixtures in complete absence of air and in closed porosity (metallurgy, foundry and petrochemical industries).<\/p>\n

PRESSING<\/strong><\/p>\n

Continuous studies applied in the manufacturing departments led us to optimize the production of standard mixtures on presses, with low and medium levels of alumina, eliminating long necessary steps of material sedimentation and reducing labor costs.[\/vc_column_text][vc_media_grid element_width=”3″ gap=”25″ initial_loading_animation=”fadeInDown” grid_id=”vc_gid:1631614083881-7d8c0d86-d968-10″ include=”1507,1508,1509,1506″][vc_column_text]WIRE DRAWING<\/strong><\/p>\n

To produce tubes and special items with different diameters and shapes with medium and high alumina content, we are equipped of specific drawbenches. Continuous improvements within the mixtures and wire-drawing technologies department made possible the development of high quality technical ceramics, both for mechanical properties and for structural properties.[\/vc_column_text][vc_media_grid element_width=”3″ gap=”25″ initial_loading_animation=”fadeInDown” grid_id=”vc_gid:1631614083882-8909f3fe-6dd5-5″ include=”1511,1510″][vc_column_text]CASTING<\/strong><\/p>\n

For production of high alumina content ceramics, as well as ceramics on customer\u2019s drawing and ceramics of Mullite, Zirconium-Mullite, Silicon Carbide and Cordierite, we have set up a casting department where, in addition to a large investment in molds and equipment, we have invested in highly qualified workers.[\/vc_column_text][vc_media_grid element_width=”3″ gap=”25″ initial_loading_animation=”fadeInDown” grid_id=”vc_gid:1631614083883-d7605284-45f6-1″ include=”1657,1514,1515,1516,1512″][vc_column_text]FIRING<\/strong><\/p>\n

We have gas and electric furnaces so we can choose the best firing cycle for each single product. The target reached is the perfect sintering of the technical ceramics.<\/p>\n

\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>THERMODIELECTRIC\u00a0REFRACTORIES<\/strong><\/p>\n

These mixtures are used for manufacturing of electric and\/or gas industrial furnaces; they are iron removed and for this reason they guarantee an excellent support for bare wire and \/ or armored electric heating elements. In addition to a wide range of items presents in our brochure, we can also produce molded parts on customer\u2019s drawing, with different alumina content to increase the performances.<\/p>\n

MELTED SILICA SIM.SIO2, SIM.SIO2\/SV e SIM. <\/strong>SIO2\/STEEL<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is a highly resistant preformed refractory (\u201cT\u201d runners, casting vases, pouring cups, shells) and thermal insulator with high resistance to metal corrosion. It is used to transport and dose liquid aluminum in casting processes. Thanks to its specific features, this product is treated in vibrating tables and special furnaces with special temperatures for a complex thermal sintering process. After the firing, a liquid preparation made from boron nitride is added.<\/p>\n

The \u201cSV\u201d mixtures are produced by vacuum-casting technology that guarantees complete absence of porosity to the mixture. Thanks to this production process, we can introduce a 86% of melted silica in the mixture, providing better resistance to the product itself.<\/p>\n

The \u201cSTEEL\u201d mixtures are produced by vibrating \/ jet and AISI 310\/S metal needles are added to reduce the erosion caused by the passage of nonferrous alloys in the molten state.<\/p>\n

SILICON CARBIDE SIM.SIC 70 \u2013 80<\/strong><\/p>\n

Traditional refractory mixture in Silicon Carbide, used in the manufacturing of technical ceramics parts for the foundry industry or for the manufacturing and maintenance of industrial furnaces. The SIC70 mixture is used in the production of thermocouples protective shields and of riser pipes used in dosing furnaces. The SIC80 mixture is used in the production of soles and tiles for industrial electric furnaces. Both the mixtures can be \u201cengobed\u201d, that means treated with 99% alumina to increase the mechanical strength.<\/p>\n
