Toll production

The machinery for material preparation, shaping and thermal treatment at ALPHA CERAMICS is available also for a direct toll production for our customers. This provides the possibility to supply products for a limited time, e.g. for testing the market acceptance or to bridge the time until an own production plant can be put in operation. Products which are permanently required only in small lots and for which a separate production plant would not be economically, can be supplied recurrently on call order

Laboratory

In close cooperation with the division "ceramic process engineering" of the Chair of Ceramics and Refractory Materials of the Aachen University (RWTH), laboratory tests are transferred into industrial scale. Furthermore, also existing process routes are analysed in order to improve product quality and reduce production costs. Another important aspect of this cooperation is the support of students by offering student seminar papers and diploma theses in cooperation with industrial partners
