| | American Metal Market: Asea sells technology use licenses |
 | | Seco Tools, the Norton Co., and GTE Valeron have all been licensed to use technology developed by Asea Cerama, based in Robertsfors, Sweden, that covers a method of using glass encapsulation and hot isostatic pressing (HIP) for producing fully dense and intricately shaped advanced ceramic parts. |
 | | Asea Cerama technology and services are marketed in the United States by Asea Pressure Systems Inc., a manufacturer of hot isostatic presses based in Columbus. |
 | | Jerry B. Toops, sales and applications engineer for Asea Pressure Systems, said the Asea Cerama process was developed initially for work with silicon nitride, but it can be applied to other high-performance ceramics as well, including boron nitride, boron carbide, silicon carbide, zirconia and alumina. |
