Description
Industrial Alumina Oxide Ceramic was developed in the early days of space exploration and is the material used to make the heat shield for space craft upon re-entry to earth’s atmosphere. It’s also used extensively in the medical field because of its smooth, yet extremely durable, properties. SpaceAge Ceramics has developed new and creative applications with alumina oxide ceramics.
SpaceAge Ceramics produces alumina oxide ceramics to create guides to be used with industrial band saws guideblocks used in the meat cutting and industrial lumber band saws. When using the SpaceAge Ceramics Guideblocks, it can increase the life of the actual blade by 140%, greatly reducing the cost to replace the blades, and the lost production of the band saw when the blade is being replaced; both of which make the ROI on the SpaceAge Ceramics Guideblocks attractive to end-users.
Ceramic guides have been used in various applications within the sawmill industry for the past 30 years. Clifford Hyatt, founder of SpaceAge Ceramic Guideblocks, was an early pioneer of this very useful and efficient process and has since applied the concept to the smaller sawmill and homeowner needs. The Sellers purchased the business in 2015 and have steadily been growing sales and developing different applications. Most recently, Space Age Ceramics developed Butcher's Blocks (Trademark) specifically designed for the meat cutting/butcher band saws. One can imagine the opportunity of Butcher's Blocks (Trademark) in all the butcher shops in national and international grocery stores. Increasing the blade's life by 140% and reducing downtime to replace the blades would have a significant productivity boost in all butcher shops. In addition to butcher band saws, focusing on band saw manufactures is another opportunity for a new owner to focus.
There are limitless ceramic applications which could be used in numerous different industries and applications. From aerospace to your local butcher shop, SpaceAge Ceramics is a great opportunity for a buyer to create new solutions to help productivity and efficiency.
