Material Selection:

To produce a superior product, a specific component must be engineered for cost efficient manufacturing and must outlast the competition. Material selection and manufacturing process parameters are the keys. MTi's expert consulting is frequently called upon to recommend materials, heat treatments, surface finishes and any other related metallurgical processes to arrive at the optimum component for its intended purpose.

• Material alloy selection is based on cost, availability, and desired properties (corrosion resistance, wear resistance, high temperature creep resistance, high strength, fatigue resistance, etc.)
• Heat treatment recommendations are made to bring out desired properties.
• Protective Coatings are recommended for special applications (corrosion, wear, high temp, etc.)
