Because your parts deserve better than the compromises of conventional metals
Vulkalloys® are not just another alternative. They are proprietary amorphous alloys combining properties that crystalline metals cannot achieve, designed, produced, and controlled entirely at Vulkam.
| With Vulkalloys | With conventional metal | |
|---|---|---|
| Performance Capabilities |
Combined properties in one material: toughness + precision + strength + elasticity
|
Multiple conflicting properties: lifespan vs. weight, strength vs. precision
|
| Production Efficiency |
Complex part direct from mold at ±3 µm: less machining, less waste, lower energy costs
|
Intensive machining = shavings, material loss, use of polluting cutting oils, long lead times
|
| Durability & Maintenance |
Lifespan x10: fewer replacements, fewer stoppages
|
Frequent replacement of worn parts
|
| Supply Chain |
A single point of contact from material to delivered part
|
Multiple suppliers to coordinate
|
| Surface Quality |
Ra < 0.4 µm: surface quality without post-processing
|
Surface properties often insufficient without treatment
|
| Sustainability |
−36% energy, −97% chips, closed material loop
|
High carbon footprint over the component lifecycle
|
Vulkam has developed a proprietary vertical injection thermomolding process, protected by patent. This technology guarantees optimal metallurgy inside the part, ensuring the best possible mechanical properties.
Unlike conventional processes, Vulkam thermomolding prevents crystalline structure formation by precisely controlling the metal cooling rate. The result: an amorphous atomic structure whose properties exceed those of conventional metals.
Vulkam holds 14 patent families.
Vulkam is one of the few players in the world controlling the entire amorphous alloy value chain: formulation design, alloy production, thermomolding, and machining. Everything is done in-house.
This vertical integration offers our clients unique guarantees:
Three families of proprietary alloys, optimized for different constraints. And if none fits your exact need, we develop a new one!
Thanks to its proprietary technology and complete mastery of the industrial process, Vulkam supports its partners in the development and production of innovative metal components from alloy formulation to functional part.
FAQ
We do not develop alloys based on precious metals (gold, platinum…) as standard. However, specific studies may be considered depending on requirements. Our priority: technical performance, availability, and industrial viability.
Yes. This is one of the key strengths of our technology. We adjust the Vulkalloys® formulation according to your specifications: mechanical strength, elasticity, wear or corrosion resistance. Composition becomes a custom performance lever.
Quality is ensured through in-house production control, precise chemical composition monitoring, and processes that guarantee high material homogeneity. Each alloy is designed to be stable, reproducible, and industrially reliable
