Supplying Alumina Ceramic Setter Plates to TEI

Blog Content

At ZYLAB, we are proud to support leading global enterprises with advanced ceramic materials. Recently, we successfully delivered a batch of high-purity alumina ceramic setter plates to TUSAŞ Engine Industries Inc. (TEI), Turkey’s leading aerospace engine manufacturer.

About the Client – TEI

TEI (TUSAŞ Engine Industries Inc.) is a globally recognized company specializing in the design, production, and maintenance of aircraft engines and gas turbines. With extensive experience in precision engineering, TEI requires materials that can withstand high-temperature, high-load, and critical tolerance conditions — especially during thermal treatments and sintering of aerospace components.

Project Requirement

TEI required ceramic setter plates to support their component sintering process inside high-temperature furnaces. Their key requirements included:

Excellent flatness and dimensional stability
High resistance to thermal shock
No deformation at temperatures exceeding 1600°C
Compatibility with a vacuum or controlled atmosphere environment

ZYLAB’s Solution

To meet TEI’s needs, ZYLAB supplied custom-sized alumina ceramic setter plates with the following features:

Material: more than 99% high-purity Al₂O₃
Max Working Temperature: Up to 1700°C
Precision Machining: ±0.2 mm tolerance, surface-ground
Excellent Thermal Shock Resistance: Ideal for rapid heating and cooling cycles
Dense & Smooth Surface: Reduces adhesion during sintering

All plates were carefully packaged in anti-friction and anti-breakage layers to ensure safe international transit.

Application Scenario

These ceramic setter plates are being used for:

High-temperature sintering of precision ceramic and metallic components
Support structures in box furnaces and vacuum furnaces
Heat treatment steps in turbine blade and engine part manufacturing
Applications requiring flat, stable, non-reactive surfaces at elevated temperatures
