Wear- and temperature resistant components made of powdermetallurgical steels, Co-based alloys, super alloys and composite materials.

Compared with the conventional manufacture of materials based on the melting technology, the Powder Metallurgy provides special advantages:

• Alloys that cannot or can only be produced with enormous difficulties (for example higher carbide content)   
• homogeneous material with no gravity segregation, solidification segregation, phase segregation and with isotropic properties
• greater freedom of design of the components

Industy sector and Products

Large selection of materials as well as material combinations, single part production and small series.

Applications:

• High performance cold and hot working high speed steels (Forming-, cutting and pressing tools)

• Corrosion resistant tools; protection against intercrystalline corrosion

Applications:

Typical applications for high temperature resistant PM-Superalloys are
 

• high performance engine parts
• high temperature resistant machine parts of the chemical and petrochemical industry
• hot working tools in the diamond grinding disk- and glas industry, etc.

Applications:

• mining tools, cutting tools

• corrosion resisting high temperature engineering parts
• hot working tools

Tailored material properties in tool areas where these are required most:

• Hardmetal (cemented carbide) – Steel
• o-based alloy (SAS) – Steel
• Superalloy - Steel

• Expert advice for the choice of the material

• Common development of the applications with the customer

• Production of small series possible

• A great number of material combinations (reduction of cost) of steel and tungsten carbide/Saracom)
