FAST (Field-assisted Sintering Technology)/ DCS (Direct Current Sintering) is an advanced powder metallurgy technology that integrates plasma activation, pressurization, heating and sintering of alloy powders. Under the combined action of current and pressure, materials can be synthesized in only one step. With its rapid heating and cooling rates, high sintering efficiency and good connection effect, it has attracted widespread attention and heated discussions among researchers. With the continuous deepening of research, this technology has been widely used in the preparation of various materials, such as metals, ceramics, and composite materials. Including materials that are not easy to sinter, novel carbon-containing materials, most nanocrystalline metal functional gradient materials and materials with complex shapes.
We used our open laboratory’s field assisted sintering technology furnace CNE-FHP-828 to make zirconium carbide ceramics for our Korean customers.
Our customer synthesizes the MAX-phase ceramic materials by fast hot pressing sintering furnace CEN-FHP-808 in our open laboratory.
Our customer uses the Spark Plasma Sintering furnace CEN-FHP-858 in our open lab to sinter the MAX phase ceramic material.
Fast Hot Pressing Sintering for Testing
Fast sinter boride high entropy ceramics have the advantages of low energy requirements, simple process, and fast preparation speed.
Fast hot pressing sintering Sintering temperature of 1850℃ for sialon ceramics.
Ultra heating speed of 1000℃ per minute. Today, there are finally teachers from Tsinghua University who are using such extreme conditions.Fast hot pressing sintering furnace.
Field-assisted sintering technology (FAST) is an advanced sintering technology that uses high current to rapidly heat conductive tool components and materials under simultaneous uniaxial pressure
FAST/DCS sintering has the advantages of low sintering temperature, short sintering time, and greatly inhibits grain growth.
Sialon ceramics have good toughness, high hardness, wear resistance, and high-temperature oxidation resistance.
FAST sintering cemented carbide has advantages compared with vacuum sintering, such as inhibiting grain growth, obtaining fully dense, etc.
In recent years, SPS technology has been successfully applied to the connection of different materials and has shown satisfactory results.
