Global and U.S. Sintered Alumina Insulator Market Report, Published by QY Research.
Siemens Energy, a high-voltage equipment manufacturer in Germany experienced repeated dielectric failures in its power conversion modules used for wind turbine inverters. Conventional polymer-based insulators suffered from moisture absorption, thermal deformation, and partial discharge at elevated temperatures. These reliability issues caused unplanned downtime, premature capacitor failures, and costly field replacements. To solve the problem, the engineering team adopted Sintered Alumina Insulators, produced from high-purity Al2O3 powder compacted and fired at temperatures above 1,600 °C to achieve a dense, fine-grained ceramic structure. These insulators deliver exceptional dielectric strength, mechanical rigidity, corrosion resistance, and thermal stability up to 1,000 °C. After integrating alumina insulators into busbars, terminal blocks, and power module housings, the manufacturer saw a 55% reduction in partial discharge incidents, improved thermal cycling endurance, and significantly longer service life in harsh offshore environments. Sintered alumina insulators are now essential components in EV chargers, HVDC converters, RF systems, aerospace electronics, and furnace instrumentation.https://www.qyresearch.com/reports/5444841/sintered-alumina-insulator

Case study for bidding
Time: October 2023
Supplier: Kyocera Corporation
Buyer: Siemens Energy
Product: 96% Alumina Sintered Insulators (High-voltage type, precision-machined)
Quantity: 11.5 kilotons
Contract Value: USD 74 million
Delivery Timeline: September 2024
Detailed Application Scenario
In this project, Siemens Energy deployed Kyocera's high-purity alumina sintered insulators in gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) and high-voltage circuit breakers. The 96% alumina ceramics delivered exceptional dielectric strength, allowing reliable insulation under voltages exceeding 150 kV while withstanding continuous thermal and mechanical stresses.
The insulators were produced using advanced powder pressing, sintering, and CNC machining techniques that ensured minimal porosity and uniform grain size-critical for preventing partial discharge and ensuring long service life. Their chemical inertness also guarded against moisture absorption and corrosion in long-term field operation.
Siemens selected these alumina insulators due to their high dimensional precision, outstanding dielectric strength, and proven performance in grid-scale infrastructure. Compared to glass or polymer insulators, sintered alumina provided far superior thermal resistance, mechanical toughness, and reliability in harsh outdoor and high-voltage conditions. This project highlighted the essential role of alumina ceramics in modern electrical infrastructure and advanced industrial equipment.
