Alumina Ceramic Air Knife and Tin-Coated Ceramic Air Knife Product Introduction:

Alumina Ceramic Air Knife

1. Material Characteristics:

• High Hardness: Rockwell hardness reaches HRA80-90, second only to diamond, and its wear resistance is equivalent to 266 times that of manganese steel.

• High Temperature Resistance: Can work stably in high-temperature environments above 1000℃.

• Corrosion Resistance: Does not react with many chemical substances and is suitable for strong acid and strong alkali environments.

• Lightweight: Density is approximately 3.6 g/cm³, only half that of steel.

• Insulation Performance: Volume resistivity > 10¹² Ω·cm, dielectric strength 15 kV/mm


Industrial Applications

• Wafer trays in chip manufacturing.

• Medical sterilization equipment.

• Electric control systems for new energy vehicles.

• Wear-resistant components in high-wear environments.


Alumina-Coated Ceramic Air Knife

1. Coating Characteristics

• Wear Resistance: High coating hardness, extending the service life of the substrate by 5 times.

• Corrosion Resistance: Excellent resistance to various chemical substances.

• Process Features: Utilizes thermal spraying or chemical vapor deposition technology.

• Coating Composition: May contain oxides such as Al₂O₃, TiO₂, and ZrO₂.

2. Technical Parameters

• Working Speed: Up to 350 m/min (for photovoltaic solder strip tinning).

• Airflow Control: Air gap can be precisely adjusted to 0.1 mm.

• Temperature Resistance: Some coatings can withstand high temperatures up to 500℃.

3. Industrial Applications

• Photovoltaic solder strip tinning.

• Lithium battery electrode drying.

• Precision electronic component processing.


Selection Recommendations

• High-temperature environment: Alumina ceramic air knives are the preferred choice.

• Precision coating: Tin-coated ceramic air knives are more suitable.

• Cost-sensitive applications: Tin-coated ceramic air knives offer better cost-effectiveness.

• Extreme wear conditions: Alumina ceramic air knives are more durable.
