Vancouver, BC-based IBC Advanced Alloys Corp., an integrated manufacturer and distributor of rare metals (beryllium) based alloys and related products serving a variety of industries, reported that its Engineered Materials division, based in Wilmington, MA, has received two new orders totaling more than $1.2 million from an existing Asian precision manufacturing customer. Deliveries of the finished cast components are expected to begin in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 and IBC is confident of additional business.
Engineered Materials President Chris Huskamp said, "IBC's business development initiatives focus on expanding our high performance castings product line while improving margins and operating efficiencies. We have identified a wide range of new opportunities and are engaged with several groups. While IBC is currently focusing on the aerospace sector for its Beralcast alloys, high performance manufacturing is a growing opportunity for IBC. Robotics, precision manufacturing and automated assembly rely on highly sophisticated materials and IBC sees many opportunities for Beralcast where precision, light weight and high modulus are essential operating requirements."
"IBC is building a strong reputation as a materials solutions provider and continues to build momentum with both our Copper Alloys division and our high modulus lightweight Beralcast alloys," said Anthony Dutton, President and CEO of IBC Advanced Alloys. "We are committed to supporting our customers, their commitment to manufacturing excellence and their need for advanced materials that exceed critical performance targets."
"The principal Beralcast alloys are three times stiffer than aluminum with 22% less weight and can be substituted for aluminum, magnesium, titanium, metal matrix composites as well as pure beryllium or powder metallurgy beryllium-aluminum," said a company spokesperson.
