Creating a custom alloy requires careful attention to details Combining materials together into an alloy broadens their possible uses, minimizing undesirable properties and strengthening advantageous ones. The permutations are seemingly endless, and small tweaks can have a big effect on the alloy’s characteristics. Add Carbon to Iron to create Carbon Steel. Take it one step…
Custom alloys can help streamline production Although custom alloys often are associated with new and advanced applications, they also can solve real-world production problems. For more than a century, Belmont Metals, based in Brooklyn, New York, has been working collaboratively with its customers to create materials that can improve their manufacturing processes. Coming up with…
Moving beyond standard alloys helps satisfy strict requirements When specifying materials for a project, companies can choose from many different types of standard alloys. In some cases, though, they might need to develop a custom alloy in order to achieve the best-possible performance. Research is ongoing to create new, advanced alloys that can satisfy the…
