Quartz – Ceramics – Supply – Manufacturer – Repairs Multi-lab will be sending out a new flyer shortley to our existing customers to remind them of the services we are able to provide. Only today we had a customer on…
Here at Multi-lab we produce many different components using fused silica that end up in laboratories around the world. Much of this equipment is extremely delicate and fragile, often due to the nature of the experiments and the testing regime…
There are many aspects to the use of quartz in today’s modern manufacturing industries. Semiconductor manufacturing which moved from the laboratory to mass manufacture during the 1960’s in the USA, is now a vast global industry. Semi-conductors are found in…
A large part of the workload here at Multi-lab is producing products and components for the scientific community. Due to the unique properties of fused quartz, there is an ongoing demand for a wide variety of scientific components, parts that are…
Here is a 350mm diameter tube during production through one of the larger lathes that we have in the production area. The heat required is needed to get the Quartz glass up to 1750 to 1800°C working temperature. The Glass…
In my previous blog I described a quartz glass cutting method known as ‘snap’ cutting. This is a manual method to break the quartz cleanly, quickly and still leave a good square neat cut. We use it here at Multi-lab…
During the manufacture of Quartz Glass components, it’s often necessary to cut down the length of stock materials in preparation for additional processing. The most common method for quartz repairs cutting a rod or tube is to ‘snap cut’. This…
Unlike the previous Glass Blowing example, it’s possible to join different shapes to produce intricate components. Although this is a simple enough example, it demonstrates that a lot of potential time was saved by joining a quartz repairs glass ring…
What starts out as two pieces of plain quartz tube can quickly be changed to something much more intricate, but only in the hands of a skilled craftsperson. Here at Multi-Lab we are proud to have a dedicated Team of…
