Metal: News for material selection in mechanical engineering

Here we report on new materials from the Metal Area. The development of new industrial goods requires innovations in steel, copper as well as precious metals, alloys or aluminum for lightweight construction. Processed metal can also be found here Materials such as profiles, bent parts or laser parts. So the right one succeeds material selection.

The material Metal is essential for industrial production. About 80% of the chemical elements in the periodic table are metals. The material metal is used in machine and plant engineering. If the applications become more difficult and properties such as corrosion protection are required, then comes precious metals or Stainless Steel as used in medical technology or in the food industry.

Precision shaftsMinitec manufactures Precision shafts now also in series. The provider of a modular system with aluminum profiles and Linear Technology offers cutting, axial and radial processing as well as milling. To this end, the company has equipped itself with the latest technology at its Waldmohr site in Rhineland-Palatinate.

Steeltec (Schmolz + Bickenbach) opens up users of high-alloy steel now a solution that combines high performance with price stability. The subsidiary of the Schmolz + Bickenbach Group is turning its Xtreme performance Technology (XTP) on precipitation hardening ferritic-pearlitic (AFP) steels. The resulting fine grain increases the room temperature Impact strength by more than 50% up to 150 J with high strength.
