Additional Advantages of
Ceramic Honeycomb & Holy Filters

Over the last 40 years, ACI has developed and optimized material formulations that deliver peak performance in various applications. Materials include Mg stabilized Zirconia, Zirconia Mullite, Alumina, and a proprietary L3MM.

 

A primary performance indicator for a filter is that it CANNOT INTRODUCE foreign material into the casting. Ceramic Honeycomb, with its unique design & laminar flow, it doesn't introduce foreign materials - unlike filters using tortuous path filtration.

 

When comparing our Holy Filters to a foam filter, one customer says:

“I think with higher volume the yield will settle in with an improvement range of 9-12%.”

 

ACI’s proprietary L3MM formula offers the performance of a zirconia filter with the cost of a mullite filter.

 

Relative to foam filters, the honeycomb filters have the advantage of being able to be made thinner, which provides better pricing and performance.

 

Ceramic honeycomb filters are used in the metallurgical and foundry industry due to its product features with large surface area, high mechanical strength, product consistency, and excellent thermal shock resistance.

With its unique straight channel honeycomb designs, it increases the specific surface area between molten metal and ceramic filter. This improves the filtration of dross, gas and other non-metal impurities, purifying and making the metal liquid flow steady.

As a result, it reduces the casting costs and improves the quality of the product. High grades of raw material and accurate processing make the quality of ceramic honeycomb filters extremely stable and consistent.

Many aerospace, automotive, medical and other industrial applications utilize ACI’s ceramic honeycomb filters to improve casting reliability.

We take the customer experience seriously. We listen to our customers and identify their needs, and then offer the best solution to meet or exceed those needs. We respond quickly and always deliver the goods.
