- Luxury
- Medical
- Aeronautics / Space / Defense
- Mechanical industries
Vulkam offers a material/process pair providing significant gains in terms of performance on parts, at industrial costs thanks to an efficient industrial scheme.
Vulkalloy Zr Inox: This high-hardness alloy has exceptional resistance to scratches, micro-scratches and impacts. Stainless, corrosion-resistant and with excellent polishability, it is intended for appearance parts in the watchmaking and luxury sectors.
Vulkalloy Ni : Vulkalloy Ni is used in transmission parts for its extreme strength, flexibility and excellent tribological properties. It is used in watch movement parts and more widely in mechanical transmission systems.
Vulkalloy Nb Med: Vulkalloy Nb Med is a biocompatible alloy that exhibits high mechanical strength, superior fatigue resistance to traditional alloys and excellent tribological properties. It is used in the development of medical instruments and in implantology.
Vulkalloy Zr Med : Vulkalloy Zr Med stands out both for its mechanical performance and its good processability. Vulkam’s ability to transform this alloy with high levels of precision makes it a valuable asset for the miniaturization of components without compromising performance.
Vulkam controls its entire value chain from the development of the alloy to the final part, from the prototype to the large series.
- Vulkam alloys : Vulkam offers a catalog of ready-to-use alloys for the production of customer parts. It is also possible to offer specific formulations according to customer specifications.
- Vulkam processes : Vulkam has developed proprietary processes offering high-precision shaping capacity. In addition, Vulkam integrates finishing methods to guarantee its customers the quality of services with controlled deadlines and strict data confidentiality.
- Your parts: Take advantage of our alloys and our expertise in amorphous metal alloys to meet your challenges (performance gain, durability gain, miniaturization of components) and consider a new field of possibilities for your products.
