When it comes to metalworking, there are several different methods a professional can use to create durable components. Sometimes a manufacturer is able to get a product so close to its final stage that finishing is not a requirement. This is the opposite of net shape manufacturing. Learn more about near net shaping and why […]

We all know the beautiful blue that radiates from raw cobalt, but have you ever heard of cobalt alloys? This alloy is a cobalt-chromium “superalloy” specifically designed for high wear resistance and superior performance in hostile environments. Therefore, cobalt alloys are resistant to cavitation, erosion, corrosion, galling, and abrasion. Read on to learn more about […]

In metalworking, rolling is a metal forming process in which metal stock is passed through one or more pairs of rolls to reduce the thickness and to make the thickness uniform. Seamless rolled rings give your forging the best strength, fatigue resistance, and freedom from inclusions. Let’s take a look at where you can find […]

The process of forging seamless rings plays a significant role in the manufacturing of other important components. Forging is a technique of manufacturing strong, typically metal, components for use in machinery. The foraged items can be made for when apparatuses are required for the expansion of wind turbines or high-quality gears for mechanics. Seamless ring […]

When it comes to metal parts, only a few types of components compare to castings. Castings can be produced with fine detail, thin walls, excellent “as-cast” surface finish, shape into external or internal features, and near-net shapes. Furthermore, cast parts allow customers to money thanks to the minimal use of material, machining, and labor. While […]

A few pounds up to more than 150 tons of forged materials can be produced using open die forging. It is known as open die forging because the metal is not laterally constrained by impression dies when forging. It gradually shapes the initial stock into the required shape, typically between flat-faced dies.   In reality, […]

In the realm of industrial manufacturing and alloy castings, innovation plays a pivotal role in driving progress and improving efficiency. One such innovation that has proven to be a game-changer is the process of centrifugal casting. Leveraging the power of rotational forces, centrifugal castings offer unique advantages over conventional casting methods. In this blog post, […]

Are you thinking about using cobalt alloys for your next project? If you are, then there are a few things that you should learn about this extremely advantageous metal. Keep reading to learn 7 interesting facts that you need to know about cobalt alloys. 7 Facts About Cobalt Alloys It was originally created in the […]

Investment castings, which are often referred to as lost-wax castings, are metal parts that are produced by the investment casting process. This expendable mold process and the components that it produces is extremely popular for countless applications in numerous industries. This is largely due to the fact that the investment casting process makes it possible […]

Ferralloy, Inc. produced 4 support rings for an aerospace customer in a cast equivalent of 602CA which is a high nickel alloy heat resistant material. The rings are ~30 x 21 x 3” high and weigh 190# ea.
