Capabilities
Superalloy Ingot Billet and Bar
WASA produces superalloy ingot, billet and Bar for forging and ring rolling applications for a range of aerospace, power generation and oil & gas applications.
In addition to IN718 WASA produces over 40 wrought alloy grades some of which include Waspaloy, IN625, X750, 13/8, U500, IN725, IN925, R41, IN945, IN945X, S188, C263, IN907,IN909.
VIM Superalloy Master Bar Stock
WASA also produces VIM superalloy ingots either for use in casting applications or input stock for powder material for aerospace and power generation applications. The remelt ingot is produced in a variety of diameters between 3 inch (75mm) and 7 inch (175mm).
WASA supplies master barstock used in equiaxed, columnar grain, single crystal and powder atomisation applications. With a total portfolio of over 60 seperate grades examples of the major alloys produced are IN738, GTD111, Rene 108, MM247, IN792, FSX 414, L605, MM002, C1023, IN713, IN 718, R77, PWA1455LS, PWA1475LS, IN100, R88, RR1000, ME16, SR99, WSX1 and WSX 2.
Vacuum Induction Furnace
WASA’s vacuum induction furnace has a melting capacity of 5 tonnes (11,000 lbs), 10 tonnes (22,000 lbs) or 15 tonnes (33,000 lbs) and can produce input stock for master melts or secondary and tertiary melting.
Vacuum Arc Remelting
WASA’s VAR furnaces have upgraded control systems for precision melting control. Ingots can be supplied via the double melt VIM + VAR process or the triple melt VIM + ESR + VAR process for premium quality rotating grade applications.
