FAQs
Tungsten, tungsten-copper, tungsten heavy metal, molybdenum, TZM, tantalum and niobium are high-melting-point metals. They are irreplaceable when high temperatures stress the material. At temperatures between 1,000 and 1,600°C, semi-finished products obtain their basic shape by means of forging, round hammering or rolling. Workpieces with very low tolerances can be produced by a subsequent surface grinding operation.
