KNOW-HOW AND TECHNOLOGY

Dynamic and innovative, HARDEX is constantly developing, thanks to a design and production department dedicated to complex parts and prototypes, enabling it to develop new materials and new functions.

Heat treatment

Heat treatment

To obtain a hard, dense ceramic part, it is necessary to carry out successive high-temperature heat treatments: debinding and sintering.

Formatting

Formatting

To shape the part, HARDEX uses either the ceramic pressing technique (uniaxial or Dry Pressing) or the CIM (Ceramic Injection Moulding) technique.

Industrialization and R&D Office

Industrialization and R&D Office

Thanks to its Research and Development (R&D) and industrialisation offices, HARDEX is able to study its customers' needs in detail, and offer them the materials and technologies best suited to the project. Quality and costs are thus optimised.

Mechanical rework / Machining

HARDEX’s high-performance machinery can machine ceramics. HARDEX has machines for all machining operations:

  • Surface grinding
  • Cylindrical grinding
  • CNC (numerical control): from 3 to 5 axes

This makes HARDEX an ideal partner for the manufacture of precise, hard-wearing parts.

When the required tolerances cannot be obtained directly after heat treatment, HARDEX has the in-house equipment to achieve the finest precision.

Endings - Finishes

HARDEX offers a wide range of finishes for a wide variety of applications:

  • Polishing
  • Satin finishing
  • Bead blasting
  • Laser decoration
  • Mechanical assembly and/or gluing
  • Lacquering
