VP of Operations for the Coldwater Michigan site producing molybdenum metal powders as well as molybdenum semi-finished and finished products. This high strength, tough, hard metal has excellent thermal conductivity, low heat resistance and low degree of thermal expansion. Although very dense, it is lighter than tungsten, but has a similarly high melting point 4,748°F. Thanks to these special properties, molybdenum is indispensable in many key industries: •Thin film transistors for photovoltaic systems require ultrathin molybdenum coating as a conductive metal layer.•Due to molybdenum's low degree of thermal expansion, it is frequently used in the electronics industry for semiconductors and for thermal heat sinks.•Molybdenum crucibles are very well suited for growing crystals in LED production.•In high-temperature furnaces, molybdenum furnace linings provide excellent protection from heat radiation•For highly pure types of glass, the glass industry prefers glass melting electrodes made of molybdenum Coldwater site is home of a 5500T Lowey extrusion press which is unique in its ability to extrude almost any metal type in a large size range. From concept to production, from small 6 inch diameter to large scale 17 inch diameter billet, we provide extrusion services to deliver specified material, size and shape to your specific need including rods, tubes and shapes.
