Have company consolidations left you wondering who can melt your alloys?
Over the last 10 years, a number of companies in the aerospace industry have joined forces. While this probably improved the bottom line of these new conglomerates, you might be sending your alloys melting jobs to a competitor.
Here are two scenarios you might run into if you use a competitor as your melt shop:
- You are developing a small alloy and want to stay off the radar. Since a competitor is doing your work, you wonder if your development will truly remain confidential.
- You have a very tight timeframe. Unfortunately, the shop that is doing the melt has conflicting goals. At first they say they can meet your deadline. However, your job ends up taking a back seat since they put a higher priority on their own work.
