FAQs
Tungsten has the highest melting point of all metals and is indispensable when high temperatures stress the material. At temperatures between 1,000 and 1,600°C semi-finished products receive their basic shape by forging, round hammering or rolling. Work pieces with very low tolerances can be produced by a subsequent surface grinding operation.
Alloy additives can be used to influence the chemical, physical and mechanical properties of our semi-finished and finished parts. Depending on the required application, an alloy can be chosen that has optimal parameters in terms of resistance, interaction, temperature behaviour, material properties, conductivity and machinability.
