The role of carbon in steel casting
Carbon is the main alloying element of steel materials, so steel materials can also be called iron-carbon alloys. The main functions of carbon in steel are: 1) Form a solid solution structure to improve the strength of steel, such as ferrite and austenite structures, both of which contain dissolved carbon elements; 2) The […]
Advantages of Metal 3D Printing
Metal 3D printing is advantageous because it can produce high-performance, complex metal parts that are suited for a range of end environments. Metal 3D printed parts are isotropic, meaning they have even, multi-directional strength, and have the superior mechanical properties of metals like aluminum, stainless steel, titanium, Inconel, tool steel, and stainless steel-bronze composites. 3D […]
