📌 Why Choose Carbide Technologies Inc (CTI)?
Best For: Tool makers serving the Aerospace and Automotive industries who require documented metallurgical consistency and traceability.
- Trusted by Industry Giants: CTI stands out for meeting the rigorous standards of the world's most demanding end-users. Their materials have won approval from industry titans such as Boeing, Pratt Whitney, Northrop, and General Electric. For buyers, this serves as the ultimate quality validation. If their carbide blanks & preforms meet the fatigue and stress requirements of jet engines, they are more than capable of handling general industrial applications.
- From Powder Blending to Sinter-HIP: CTI operates its own powder manufacturing facility. They blend powders in controlled 300kg lots, ensuring batch-to-batch uniformity that "ready-to-press" buyers often struggle to achieve. Furthermore, their use of Ultra-Temp Sinter HIP (Hot Isostatic Pressing) technology minimizes internal porosity, resulting in blanks with superior transverse rupture strength and density.
- Metallurgical Support: CTI provides value beyond the product through its fully staffed & equipped internal laboratory. They don't just test for shipping; they offer Tool Failure Analysis and material characterization services to their customers. If your tools are failing prematurely, CTI has the capability (Microscopy to 1750X, LECO Carbon Analysis) to determine if the issue lies in the grade selection or the application.
- Traceability and Data Archiving: For industries requiring strict compliance, CTI is the right choice. They track and store all production metrics and product information in their database for at least three years, then transfer this data to optical discs for permanent storage. This ensures 100% traceability from the raw powder source to the finished sintered blank.
