heat-resistant

When it comes to projects involving metal parts, the sensitivity of the metal is an important factor. Depending on the project, you have to make sure the metal you are using can withstand what you are needing to use it for. In the case of extreme heat, heat resistant castings […]

The integrity of any project requiring metal work lies on the integrity of the material used. There is a reason super alloys are named “super.” Their strength and stability make them ideal for particular products and alloy castings. If you are looking to create strong and high performing castings for […]

The term investment casting is derived from the process of “investing” a pattern with refractory materials. When it comes to investment casting, the process contains several steps. Let’s take a look at the steps that are involved in a castings investment. Construction Since each investment casting destroys the wax pattern […]

In the metalworking world, every metal part possesses its own unique set of benefits. No matter what industry you’re in, it’s important to know the benefits of different metal components so that you can choose the part that will be the most valuable for your specific project. One metal part […]

Closed die forging is a forging process in which dies that contain a precut profile of the desired part move towards each other and covers the piece in whole or in part. This blog will go into detail about the forging process and capabilities. Forging Process The process beings with […]

Forging is a manufacturing process involving the shaping of metal using localized compressive forces. When it comes to forging, there are two types: closed die and open die. In this blog, we will take a look at closed die forging and the process that goes into it. Creating the Mold […]

Inconel is in the superalloy family. It is nickel-chromium-based and is corrosion resistant. As a result, it is ideal in extreme environments subjected to pressure and heat. When it comes to Inconel, there are a few different main types. Let’s take a look at some of the different types. 600 […]

Forging is a manufacturing process involving the shaping of metal using localized compressive forces. One the materials that can be forged is steel. Forged components are found in a wide variety of industries, including automotive, agricultural, and aerospace. Let’s take a look at some of the industries steel forgings are […]

While many materials can be cast, including several types of metals and synthetics, iron and steel are typically the best and most popular. Iron and steel feature excellent mechanical properties for a wide range of applications. While the two might seem similar, they have distinct differences. Let’s take a look […]

Furnace rolls are just what they sound like. They are specialty rolls that are found in furnaces and used to allow furnaces to operate efficiently. A popular use for these rolls is found in a method called carburizing. Let’s take a look at carburizing and where you can find furnace […]
