Abstract
Method for producing ceramic components, more particularly ceramic components having recesses and/or hollow spaces, there being at least one sintered ceramic part present. In order to improve the handling qualities of ceramic components, the sintered ceramic part can include a carrier or carrying section which is removed in the further processing from at least one ceramic component.
Claims15
Method for producing a plurality of ceramic components each component having recesses and/or hollow spaces, the method comprising:
- providing at least one sintered ceramic part comprises a carrier or carrying section with a flat side, and wherein a plurality of ceramic components protrudes from said flat side of the carrier or carrier section;
- and
- in a further process:
- removing the carrier or carrying section from the plurality of ceramic components, wherein the removal of the carrier or carrying section exposes at least one hollow space or recess on the plurality of ceramic components, wherein removing the carrier or carrying section from the plurality of ceramic components comprises:
- embedding the plurality of ceramic components protruding from said flat side of the carrier or carrier section in a holding composition, such that the holding composition completely surrounds at least one ceramic component of the plurality of ceramic components and the entire flat side of the carrier or carrying section is in contact with the holding composition;
- cutting away the carrier or carrying section from the underside of the carrier or carrying section, opposite to the flat side of the carrier or carrying section, toward the flat side, until only the at least one ceramic component surrounded by the holding composition is left;
- and
- singularizing the at least one ceramic component by removal of the holding composition.
