Information on Materials and the Challenges Specific to Each One

Materials at a Glance

When it comes to machining a material, you need to consider the special requirements of each one. You can find additional information on the challenges relating to the individual materials on the pages to follow.

Steel

Steel refers to metallic alloys with iron as their primary component which contain less than 2.06 percent carbon and belong to the ISO P group.

Corrosion-resistant Steel

Corrosive-resistant steels include a range of steel grades characterized by high resistance to corrosion and acid.

Cast Iron

Cast iron melts at a lower temperature than steel and has excellent flowing characteristics due to its chemical composition.

Non-ferrous Metals

All metallic alloys containing little to no iron, with the exception of precious metals, are referred to as non-ferrous (NF) metals.

Superalloys

Superalloys are high-strength metals whose complex composition of different metals and other elements makes them suitable for use in high-temperature applications.

Hardened Steel

Hardened steel is characterized by a particularly high mechanical resistance and is used in sectors such as the automotive industry and mechanical engineering.

Non-metallic Materials

Non-metallic materials are all materials that do not contain metal in their material matrix.
