New Manufacturing Technologies

Elmet Technologies (formerly H.C. Starck Solutions) is constantly looking at new ways to improve the manufacturing of refractory metal parts. Through every step of the manufacturing process, new methods for consolidation, thermo-mechanical processing, machining, or final inspection are evaluated for usefulness. Collaboration with start-up companies, national laboratories, research institutes and universities on new approaches has delivered next-generation products that drive market growth. Our adoption of 3D screen printing and laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing technologies are examples of such collaboration. Whether it is the ability to improve quality, performance or reduce costs, our innovation team strives to deliver the best value to our customers.
