Depending on the purpose and ultimate use of the metal part, different procedures are employed to create the highest quality piece possible. As for the castings process, it is considered to be one of the best.The process involves the heating of the metal until it turns molten before being poured […]

Do you know what type of alloy is known to have oxidation – and corrosion-resistant materials? Inconel, a brand name for specific nickel-chromium alloys, is well-suited for service in extreme environments subjected to pressure and heat. It is often used by industries that use forged materials exposed to extreme heat […]

Die casting, and investment casting are 2 of the foremost important types of casting. Die casting is a method wherein molten metal is created and formed into a mold cavity by way of enforcing high pressure. On the other side, investment casting is a process that involves the injection of […]

Rolled ring forgings are used in a wide range of industries. Rolled ring forgings are an appealing metalworking option thanks to their strength, versatility, and cost effectiveness. But how do they get that way? Rolled rings are able to hold so many advantages thanks to their forging process. Keep reading […]

A large manufacturer of industrial motors requested Ferralloy, Inc. to redesign an internal motor component, so as to eliminate a large portion of the machining required to finish it.By utilizing the investment casting process, the company was able to reduce the weight of the casting and actually ‘cast in’ a […]

When it comes to creating metal parts, there are a wide variety of processes to choose from. There is sand casting, investment casting, centrifugal casting, heat resistant casting, rolled ring forging, open die forging, and closed die forging, just to name a few. Deciding on which metalworking process is right […]

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.

Thanks to possessing a wide-range of benefits, forged parts are one of the most popular metal components in the world. As a result, countless industries rely on these parts. Which industries use forgings? Keep reading to learn about the 5 most common industries that use forged parts! 5 Common Industries […]

Investment casting is one of the first and most common types of metal components. The procedure to create these components involves pouring molten metal into a ceramic mold. The metal solidifies within the mold, and then the metal casting is broken out. Industries that focus on food equipment, railroad, heat […]

When it comes to metal parts, it’s hard to find one as prominent as rolled ring forgings. Rolled rings have played vital roles in countless industries for years, and it shows no signs of going anywhere. What exactly are rolled ring forgings? And, more importantly, where can you get them […]
