Automotive
The Technical Ceramics business of Morgan Advanced Materials provides precision-engineered materials, components and assemblies for a wide range of automotive applications from car production to specialist vehicle build.
Vehicle builders and automotive component manufacturers are increasingly using ceramic as an alternative to metal, for its mechanical strength and thermal and electrical properties. We work with automotive customers, developing and manufacturing reliable, durable and cost-effective components for today’s demanding high-tech vehicle applications.
Our advanced ceramic materials offer superior dimensional stability, shock resistance, strength, stiffness and chemical resistance across a wide range of temperatures. Our pump components are used in the cooling systems in hybrid vehicles, thanks to their high wear and corrosion resistance.
We produce kiln rollers for hot stamping and press hardening of automotive parts. The refractoriness of our components enable them to shape durable lightweight components that reduce overall vehicle weight, increase fuel efficiency and help manufacturers meet increasingly tougher emission standards.
Our kiln furniture is also used for firing of oxide honeycombs in the manufacture of catalytic converters and diesel particulate filters.
Products we supply to the automotive market include:
- Ceramic cores for the casting of vehicle engine components
- Nilcra® welding pins
- Fused silica and mullite rollers to thermally anneal automotive chassis parts
- Silicon carbide kiln furniture
With our world-class design expertise and specialist manufacturing capabilities we work in partnership with our automotive customers to develop competitive tailored solutions to meet their long term needs. We produce high quality ceramic components to tight specifications in quantities from one-offs to high volume production. We supply directly to customers in the car racing industries as well as to other tier-one automotive suppliers.
