A manufacturer of engineered response materials for the oil and gas industry expects to expand its heat treating capability with the recent installation of a new 3,500 MT extrusion press.
The installation of the state-of-the-art press at Terves Inc. in Euclid, Ohio, was completed by Extral Technology SRL, an aluminum extrusion manufacturer based in Italy. Housed within the company’s new 11,000 sq ft H3-classified magnesium metal processing facility, the press will also expand Terves’s magnesium molten metal processing, machining, and storage capabilities.
Extral Technology designed the press to accommodate Terves’s internal production of TervAlloy (a family of patented dissolvable magnesium alloys that provide reliable dissolution rate at a variety of temperatures), as well as for full-scale development services for new alloys.
