🔥 The $200K/year Diamond Trap
Diamond abrasives dominate ultra-precision grinding but carry hidden costs:

  • Carbon Contamination: 0.08% residue on SiC wafers reduces chip yield 12% (TSMC data)

  • Price Volatility: Synthetic diamond prices surged 37% in 2023 (Industrial Diamond Journal)

Green SiC’s Triple Advantage

  1. Material Science Breakthrough

    • 99.8% SiC purity (Fe₂O₃≤0.03%) vs. diamond’s graphitization risk

    • Hexagonal α-crystals maintain self-sharpening edges at 15,000 RPM

  2. Cost-Saving Proof

  1. Performance Benchmark

3.Performance Benchmark

  • Surface Finish: Ra 0.07μm identical to 3μm diamond

  • Tool Life: 400 hrs vs. diamond’s 300 hrs (Inconel 718 test)

Case: German Auto Supplier’s Win
Switched to F800 Green SiC for e-motor shafts:
Annual saving: $2.1M
Quality: Ra 0.1μm achieved at 25% faster feed rate.
