Technical ceramics are a “no-margin-for-error” material class: you get outstanding wear resistance, heat stability, electrical insulation, and chemical inertness, but the parts only perform as intended when the whole chain is controlled—powder prep, forming, sintering, and then precision finishing. That’s why I like the full-process emphasis here: with brittle materials, you can hit nominal dimensions and still end up with edge chipping, micro-cracks, or inconsistent performance if density/microstructure varies between batches. https://www.sppcncmachining.co....m/technical-ceramics
