When designing parts using precision ceramics, the use of parts must be clarified first. In general, there are a couple of key conditions of use as follows:
In case of looking for substitute materials to lengthen the service life of existing parts, find inexpensive parts, or use improved parts, the basic specifications of existing parts make materials design easier. However, when designing and using new parts in entirely new places, the process becomes difficult because new conditions of use must be evaluated. In such case, after analyzing a design, select more than one potential materials, and make and test samples. With an analysis of the test results, either modify the basic design or devise a new design and keep making, testing, and analyzing samples until the desired results are achieved.

During this phase, review whether you have experience or technology that allows manufacturing of products with the properties meeting the design requirements, and whether you are capable of producing the required quantity on time at reasonable costs, with your own production technology.

This process involves suggesting the conditions of use and demands for the properties of materials, negotiating quantities or prices, and final confirmation through drawings.

When designing parts using precision ceramics, avoid parts prone to unpredictable changes in diameter or thickness. It is strongly recommended to bevel all edges and especially areas that are drastically bent.

While prices in general greatly affect a design, there is a huge difference in cost between sample making and mass production, which makes it difficult for the consumer to make their own decision.

Distributors also find it demanding to determine prices because their manufacturing experience or technical understanding is not enough. Therefore, prices should be determined on the condition that the consumer and the distributor share the responsibility for potential risks and consult prices of similar products or international examples.
