Automotive parts particularly engines must be manufactured with precision and consistency to ensure that their performance on the road. Graphite Machining is one of the processes used by the automotive industry to produce parts as well as prototypes. It has a wide variety of automotive industry applications such as: heat-treating synthetic graphite results in precision machined plates, posts, nuts and bolts, while heating elements and fixtures utilize graphite as well.

Graphite can be machined to tight tolerances while exhibiting resistance to thermal extremes. The material is also resistant to corrosion and wear, resulting in a long lifespan even when exposed to toxic or corrosive products. such as those in car batteries.
Due to their chemical and physical properties, graphite parts are utilized in the automotive industry where their heat resistance and durability will prove useful in car engines and other components.
Electric Discharge Machining (EDM) electrodes and spark plugs use graphite machining components due to the material's ability to conduct electricity and resist chemical erosion.
Graphite bearings are used to reduce friction between two surfaces, supporting a load while in contact with other moving parts. Due to its self-lubricating properties, long lifespan and durability, graphite is ideal for this role.
The process for machining graphite is similar to the methods used to machine cast iron. The fine chips, or swarf, are removed as a fine powder. Tools used in the process being cut using a process much like plowing snow. Graphite material has high compressive strength and can be held in place with clamping force. It is important to determine the amount of required clamping force prior to working the piece.
Graphite gaskets and seals are used in automotive engines and transmissions. Graphite is used as a sealing material due to its high temperature resistance and ability to withstand pressure.
Battery electrodes utilize graphite because it is able to store large amounts of energy and is highly conductive.
Compressors, pumps, sealing systems and sliding elements also utilize graphite components.
Electric car manufacturing also uses graphite machined parts particularly for lithium-ion batteries and fuel cells that are used in electric vehicles. Graphite is a main constituent of the anodes in lithium-ion batteries.
Advanced Tech machining's high-quality precision graphite machining capabilities that can deliver results in large volumes promptly are a must for the automotive industry where engines and other complex components must function seamlessly. Advanced Tech Machining is equipped to fabricate graphite parts and components for these roles.
