Typical research and development applications
- High-temperature furnaces and thermal processes
- Testing under vacuum or inert gas
- Electrical discharge machining (EDM) and electrode development
- Glass processing and hot forming
- Pressure sintering and hot isostatic pressing (HIP)
- Sensors and electrical or thermal prototypes
Material selection: ECO, EFI or EXC
| Grade | Recommendation | Typical requirements |
|---|---|---|
| ECO | Cost-effective all-round grade | Standard applications requiring a balanced price-performance ratio |
| EFI | Our standard recommendation | Finer structure and good mechanical properties for more demanding experiments |
| EXC | For the highest requirements | Very fine structure, high strength and precise machinability |
The final selection depends on factors such as temperature, atmosphere, mechanical load, required surface finish and component geometry. We will be happy to help you choose the right grade.
