  2. Spin casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_casting

    Spin casting is a favored method for fabricating items in the specified materials – low temperature metals and thermoset plastics. Compared to the two main competing processes, injection molding and (zinc) die-casting, spin casting has significant advantages in terms of startup cost and ease of use.

  3. Spin coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_coating

    Laurell Technologies WS-400 spin coater used to apply photoresist to the surface of a silicon wafer. Spin coating is a procedure used to deposit uniform thin films onto flat substrates. Usually a small amount of coating material in liquid form is applied on the center of the substrate, which is either spinning at low speed or not spinning at all.

  4. Spray forming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spray_forming

    Spray forming offers certain advantages over both conventional ingot metallurgy and more specialized techniques such as powder metallurgy.Firstly, it is a flexible process and can be used to manufacture a wide range of materials, some of which are difficult to produce by other methods, e.g. Al-5wt% Li alloys or Al-SiC, Al-Al 2 O 3 metal matrix composites (MMCs).

  6. 17-4 stainless steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/17-4_stainless_steel

    SAE Type 630 stainless steel (more commonly known as 17-4 PH, or simply 17-4; also known as UNS S17400) is a grade of martensitic precipitation hardened stainless steel. It contains approximately 15–17.5% chromium and 3–5% nickel, as well as 3–5% copper. [1] The name comes from the chemical makeup which is approximately 17% chromium and 4 ...

  7. Investment casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Investment_casting

    Inlet-outlet cover of a valve for a nuclear power station produced using investment casting. Investment casting is an industrial process based on lost-wax casting, one of the oldest known metal-forming techniques. [1] The term "lost-wax casting" can also refer to modern investment casting processes.

  8. Surface finishing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_finishing

    Some alloys of steel and aluminum cannot be brought to a mirror finish. Castings that have slag or pits will also be difficult, if not impossible, to polish to a #8. A polished PVD finish can achieve a similar appearance due to the smooth, reflective nature of the coating process. [7]

  9. Stainless steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stainless_steel

    Stainless steel, also known as inox, corrosion-resistant steel (CRES), or rustless steel, is an iron-based alloy containing a minimum level of chromium that is resistant to rusting and corrosion. Stainless steel's resistance to corrosion results from the 10.5% or more chromium content, which forms a passive film that can protect the material ...
