Characteristics of Stainless Steel Casting

• Superior Corrosion Resistance: Ideal for applications in wet or corrosive environments.
• Thermal Stability: Maintains structural integrity under high temperature conditions.
• Hardness and Strength: Offers excellent performance in high load applications.

Nodular Cast Iron

Nodular casting, also known as ductile cast iron, is a process that produces a type of cast iron with exceptional mechanical characteristics. This method involves the addition of a nodulizing agent to the molten iron, which transforms the shape of the graphite into the structure of the iron, generating nodulations instead of scales.

Characteristics of Nodular Cast Iron

• High Ductility and Strength: Nodular cast iron offers an excellent balance between strength and ductility, allowing parts to withstand loads and deformations without breaking.
• Fatigue Resistance: Thanks to their structure, nodular molten components exhibit high fatigue resistance, which is crucial for high-stress applications.
• Versatility: This type of casting is used in various industries, from automotive to heavy machinery, thanks to its ability to operate in extreme conditions.

EMS Group employs advanced technology in the production of nodular castings, ensuring that they meet the technical specifications needed for critical applications that require high durability and strength.

Silicon-Molybdenum Casting

Silicon-molybdenum casting is a process that uses an alloy of silicon and molybdenum, mainly used in the manufacture of components that require high resistance to elevated temperatures and corrosive conditions.

Advantages of Silicon-Molybdenum Casting

• High Temperature Resistance: This alloy is excellent for applications involving extreme temperatures, making it ideal for components in industries such as aerospace and energy.
• Corrosion Properties: Silicon and molybdenum offer remarkable corrosion and wear resistance, which increases the life of castings.
• Dimensional Stability: Parts made of this alloy maintain their mechanical and dimensional properties under harsh conditions.

EMS Group excels in silicon-molybdenum casting, offering solutions that meet the needs of its customers for applications that require highly specialized and strong materials.

Metal Injection Molding (MIM)

Metal Injection Molding (MIM) is an innovative technology that combines the advantages of plastic injection molding with those of metallurgy to produce complex metal parts at high speed and with a superior surface finish.
