GfE Gesellschaft für Elektrometallurgie mbH presents its new subsidiary g·t·alloys GmbH
The company g·t·alloys
The distribution company g·t·alloys GmbH is marketing and selling products of the material Gamma Titan Aluminum which is manufactured on behalf of GfE Metalle und Materialien GmbH. GfE Metalle und Materialien GmbH is the market leader in the manufacture of Gamma Titan Aluminum.
In addition to marketing Gamma Titan Aluminum, g·t·alloys GmbH will pursue two major goals. It will identify and tap into new areas of applications in which the material could be introduced and further commercialize existing market segments.
The product Gamma-Titan-Aluminium
Gamma Titan Aluminum excels in its temperature stability, corrosion resistance and stiffness. But the most impressive characteristics of Gamma Titan Aluminum is the capability to increase the efficiency of internal combustion engines in different application areas. Gamma Titan Aluminum products generate this effect by decreasing the weight of components that are exposed to extreme temperatures.
Area of application Automotive industry
The automotive industry which uses highly exposed components benefits of the use of Gamma Titan Aluminum. Due to its light weight, Gamma-Titan-Aluminum can be applied in the production of engine components such as valves, pistons, con rods and turbochargers. This reduction of weight improves the performance and offers a great advantage especially to the racing industry. The fact that Formula 1 uses GfE produced Gamma-Titan Aluminum for years sets a great example.
Area of application Air and Space Industry
Gamma-Titan-Aluminum is able to play an integral part in the air and space industry. It could be applied in the outer skin of orbital gliders to generate an improved heat protection. The weight of components such as hot gas hoses and nozzle parts can be noticeably reduced by using Gamma-Titan-Aluminum.
In aircraft engines und gas turbines, Gamma Titan Aluminum can decrease the weight of blades, discs and frame components which results in a weight reduction of the turbines and therefore increases the load capacity.
