TENCAN Successfully Showcases Advanced Ceramics Grinding Solutions at JASIS 2026 in Japan

TENCAN Concludes a Deeply Productive JASIS 2026 Exhibition at Makuhari Messe: Advanced Ceramics Grinding Technology in the Spotlight

Chiba, Japan — September 2–4, 2026: TENCAN, a professional manufacturer of laboratory and industrial ball mills and powder processing systems, has successfully completed its participation in JASIS 2026 – the 15th International Advanced Ceramics Exhibition, held at the Makuhari Messe International Exhibition Halls and International Conference Hall. At Booth 7B-304, TENCAN held in-depth technical discussions on contamination-free grinding, high-purity powder processing and customized milling solutions for advanced ceramics and electronic materials.

Why Purity Is the Decisive Factor in Advanced Ceramics Manufacturing

Japan has long been a global powerhouse in advanced ceramics, and the technology dialogue at JASIS 2026 reflected how demanding the sector has become. In multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC), chip resistors, piezoelectric ceramics, LTCC substrates and semiconductor packaging ceramics, even trace metal impurities at the ppb level can directly damage insulation resistance, raise leakage current, lower breakdown voltage and reduce sintering yield. Equally critical is particle morphology: excessive mechanical impact shatters soft precursor powders, destroys spherical crystal structures and triggers irreversible hard agglomeration, all of which degrade the electrical and mechanical performance of the final fired component. These twin challenges — chemical purity and physical gentleness — were at the center of TENCAN’s technical presentations at the booth.

Contamination-Free Milling: The High-Purity Nylon Roll Ball Mill

The centerpiece of the TENCAN display was the High-Purity Nylon Roll Ball Mill (QM Series), purpose-built for metal-free powder grinding and blending. Its key engineering highlights drew strong attention from ceramics researchers and production engineers:

• Zero metal contact by design: The drum is manufactured as a one-piece integrated MC nylon / PA66 molding with no metal lining, no metal joints and no stainless steel bonding layer. Material contacts only nylon and non-metallic grinding media throughout the process, completely blocking the introduction of Fe, Cr and Ni ions. Compared with stainless steel cylinders, iron impurities in processed powder can be reduced by 100–1000 times.
• Elastic buffering that protects crystal morphology: With a Shore D hardness of only 75–80, the nylon drum acts as an elastic buffer between grinding media and powder. This prevents over-fragmentation and lattice defects in soft ceramic precursors such as barium titanate and PZT, preserves particle sphericity and reduces hard agglomeration in ultrafine powders.
• Process compatibility: The drum resists ethanol, isopropanol, deionized water and weak organic dispersants, making it fully compatible with mainstream wet dispersion and ultrafine grinding processes used in ceramic slurry preparation.
• Clean and efficient operation: The smooth, pore-free inner wall rinses clean with pure water or ethanol, minimizing cross-contamination between batches and material types. Nylon’s low density (1.15 g/cm³) makes the drum over 60% lighter than ceramic or metal of the same volume and reduces overall energy consumption by 15–20%, with low noise and low vibration suitable for clean workshops.
• Industrial scalability: Available from QM-30L to QM-1000L (customizable up to 2000L), with 10.5–350L loading capacity per batch, drum rotation of 20–60 r/min, final fineness down to 0.1 μm (≥300 mesh) and feed sizes of ≤5 / ≤10 / ≤20 mm. Variable-frequency or fixed-speed control, automatic discharge, explosion-proof and water-cooling options are available on request.

Supporting the Full Ceramics R&D-to-Production Chain

Alongside the nylon roll ball mill, TENCAN presented laboratory roll ball mills (such as the QM-5 with 60–570 r/min variable speed control) for universities and research centers, as well as a complete matrix of grinding jar and lining materials — nylon, polyurethane, corundum, zirconia and PTFE. TENCAN engineers explained how jar and media selection should be matched to material hardness, purity requirements, chemical media and target particle size, helping visitors design reliable processes for MLCC dielectric powders, piezoelectric ceramics, aluminum nitride and boron nitride thermal management fillers, conductive and insulating electronic pastes, and third-generation semiconductor precursor materials.

Meaningful Exchange with Industry Professionals

The TENCAN team held detailed consultations with Japanese and international visitors on topics ranging from slurry dispersion strategies and media selection to pilot-scale line design and clean-room operation. The feedback confirmed rapidly growing demand for equipment combining ultra-high purity with gentle handling — exactly the niche the pure nylon roll ball mill fills.
