If metals exhibited all the properties we wanted, we could design anything we could imagine without regard to limitations. All kinds of currently impractical components would suddenly become feasible. We could design what was previously unworkable, creating new and optimized solutions. Or we could tailor a metal’s properties to meet the specific needs of a design.
But though reality assures us that there are, indeed, limitations to what can be done with metal, we at EMS would like to assure you that there are far fewer limitations than you might have supposed.
Thanks to the remarkable versatility afforded us by the cold-rolled cladding of metals – a process largely developed right here when we were the clad metals operation of Texas Instruments – it is possible to put disparate metals together in a way that opens the doors of design to an exciting new world of possibilities.
So if you’ve harbored the notion that there are particular characteristics you simply cannot obtain in a single metal, we urge you to think again. Don’t be surprised if that design you once thought impossible to create, suddenly seems possible after all.
