The Material Development Group supports the onward processing of alloy materials which is essential for understanding the nature of these alloys for future deployment. Using a reheat furnace, pressing and rolling equipment, the full industrial process can be carried out to ensure the viability of larger scale production. Once processed, a full mechanical testing suite is available for the examination of impression creep, hardness and indentation analysis.
The Group uses a range of techniques to manufacture materials from a few grams up to 250kg, along with the capability to carry out full post manufacture processing and testing of materials.
Expertise is focused on alloys development, mechanical testing, including creep, charpy and hardness testing, vacuum brazing, reheating, and energy. Materials development capability ensures that cross sector industrial research and development support is available.
Facilities including an Advanced Materials Development Centre, Advanced Materials Characterisation Centre, Thermodynamic, Mechanical Testing, and Metallurgical Laboratories all have a comprehensive range of equipment to support material development. A production facility is used to carry out materials development at scale.
