It has since undergone hot commissioning, trial runs, optimization, and handover to Operations. The handover signifies the transition into commercial production following more than a decade of phased technology development.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>Gen4 is the first facility to take the Metalysis solid-state, modular, electrochemical process to industrial scale and can produce tens-to-hundreds of metric ton per annum of high value, niche and master alloys. It creates a new U.K. source of supply for global end-users in advanced manufacturing disciplines including aerospace, automotive, batteries, light-weighting, magnets, mining and 3D-printing consumables.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>A standout benefit of this technology is its multi-metal capability, which enables the company to produce alloy \u2018recipes\u2019 that comparable processing routes cannot. Where conventional technologies are unable to elegantly combine elements with melting and density differentials, this technology can because it is a solid-state process.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>Gen4 enables Metalysis to commercially produce a demand-driven product mix of titanium alloys; master alloys including Scandium-Aluminide, which continues to pose excellent launch product potential as announced on 11 June 2018; compositionally complex alloys including High Entropy Alloys; magnet materials; high temperature materials; and Platinum Group Metal alloys.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>The modularity of the technology offers further benefits. Unlike most supply sources for niche alloys, Metalysis\u2019 Gen4 plant can offer a wide range of order quantities. Throughout phased expansions, the technology has also presented opportunities to reduce all-in costs and environmental footprints compared to traditional, melting production routes. Gen4 expresses the modularity benefits at industrial scale.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>\u201cIn powering up and operating our industrial plant, Metalysis is poised to achieve its target to generate significant profits from our new South Yorkshire production facility,\u201d says Dr. Dion Vaughan, Chief Executive Officer.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>\u201cOurs is a true British success story with international implications. Metalysis has grown from the \u2018lightbulb moment\u2019 at Cambridge University in the late-1990s, relocated to South Yorkshire to benefit from regional excellence in operational skillsets in the early-2000s, and now onwards towards a bright commercial future.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.metalysis.com\">www.metalysis.com<\/a>&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Metalysis, England, is powering up the world\u2019s first commercial plant based on solid-state production (Cambridge process) of metal alloy powders at its Materials Manufacturing Centre in Wath upon Dearne, South Yorkshire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":63103,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[444,446,480,462,440,441,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9984","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-aerospace-and-defense","category-automobiles-and-ground-transportation","category-batteries-and-energy-storage","category-medical-devices","category-news","category-news-articles","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
