| MPC offers a wide
range of services for those involved in metallurgical or materials
research which include high purity rare earth metals, alloys and
single crystals. With capabilities from simple arc casting techniques,
single crystal
preparation,
VIM casting, to plasma spraying and high-pressure gas atomization
the MPC can assist research groups in many areas. |
| We are not a production facility, we specialize
in preparing lab scale alloys, powders, etc. and can cast ingots
up to 5" in diameter by 17" long. With complete metallography,
analytical, and characterization resources to compliment our fabrication
capabilities MPC is capable of addressing projects from many directions.
Furthermore, all of our services are provided on a cost recovery
basis. |
