Aluminium Titanate for Foundry Applications

ALTITE is a ceramic material suited for non-ferrous metal foundries. Some examples of usual applications are riser tubes, dosing tubes, break rings, stalk tubes, fill tubes, stoppers for flow control of molten masses, insulating rings and sprue bushes.

As an oxide ceramic ALTITE presents a unique combination of thermal properties and resistances against corrosion and molten metal non wetting properties: excellent thermal shock resistance, very low thermal expansion, good chemical resistance and no or little wetting by non-ferrous melts.

Different shapes are available for ALTITE. Custom made production is possible upon request.

Leading supplier of ignition and heating systems

In the 1980‘ies Rauschert has started its production of ignition systems. Meanwhile we are world‘s leading supplier in development and production of ignition systems for heating appliances like ignition and ionisation electrodes for gas- and oil burners.

Besides an efficient large-scale production we are outstanding in customer proximity and customer-specific product development. Thereby, we are deliberately committed to our facility in Germany and are proud of our quality made in Germany!

Our know-how combined with our high competence in the field of technical ceramics makes us a strong provider for innovative high temperature heating elements and hot-surface igniters. For many years now we have been manufacturing heaters for all different kinds of industrial applications with the highest quality standards.

Convince yourself of our skills!

he best thing for complex functions

For more than 100 years, Rauschert has heen producing technical parts made from ceramics. Back in 1966, we extended production to cover all thermoplastic plastics. Today, we are one of the leading manufacturers of plastic moulded parts in Germany. There is a good reason for this: we invest continually in training and further training our employees, as well as in new production technologies.

Technical moulded parts for complex functions are created in our plastic divisions. Apart from standard materials, a wide variety of high performance thermoplastics are used (e.g. PEEK, PFA, PVDF, ETFE, E-CTFE). For special requirements, we also produce composite components.

If you ever have any questions or specific concerns, we are there for you and can approach your requests in a flexible manner. With all our know-how.

Plastic moulded parts are produced in our facilities Rauschert Oberbettingen GmbH and Rauschert Steinbach GmbH in Germany.

With the experience of more than a hundred years

Technical Ceramics are also known as Advanced Ceramics or Engineered Ceramics as well as Traditional Ceramics. These terms cover many specialized ceramic materials that stand out due to high resistance to corrosion, erosion and wear, electrical and thermal insulation at high temperatures and high heat resistance.

Advanced Ceramics can be broken down into three categories:

• Oxides like alumina, zirconia etc.
• Non-oxides like carbides, nitrides, borides etc.
• Composites; particulate reinforced, fiber reinforced, combination of oxides & non oxides

Advanced Ceramics are able to withstand harsh environments and are used in numerous applications requiring high corrosion and wear resistance, high erosion resistance, high temperature capability and low electrical conductivity. Many industries including chemical, industrial (wear), medical, electronic, electrical engineering, electric heating and sanitary rely on Advanced Ceramics to solve their difficult problems.

Technical Ceramics

Traditional Ceramics are made from silicates like steatite, cordierite or porcelain. Depending on the material they offer outstanding thermal shock resistance, high heat resistance and electrical insulation strength at reasonable costs. They are used in applications such as furnace construction, hot air generators, heating element construction, foundry and welding technology.

Rauschert offers a range of both advanced and traditional ceramic materials for a variety of client applications. Our advanced ceramic materials can be manufactured into unfinished machined blanks, finished components, pressed near net shape components and highly complex machined parts.
