On-site Heat Treatment

We are continuously striving for growth and improvement, as a result, we are excited to announce our new heat-treating capabilities conforming to many specs required for the Aerospace, Defense, and Commercial industries.

The list of materials we can heat treat are Alloy Steel, Copper Alloy, Nickel Alloy, Stainless Steel PH Grade, and Low Carbon Steel.

We have added heat treatment ability to fulfil demands that we currently have from our clients, assist our very own suppliers with their expedited projects, and to support our in-house research and development department.

We are now taking expedited orders for the specified materials. Email service@imetalsource.com for inquiry or to receive our pricing calculators for your own utilization.

We will soon be NADCAP accredited for both Heat Treating and Non-Destructive Testing. Today we are AS9100 Rev. D/ISO Certified and NADCAP compliant.

Trade Backlashes From Imposed War Sanctions

by: John Oriilosa, International Business & Communication

 

As an immediate effect of Russia’s assertion over Ukrainian territories, mandates had been enforced by several IGO committees condemning such act through the form of sanctions, heavily aimed at crippling Russia’s economic stability to promote further aggressions. One of these sanctions was to negate Russia’s ability to use the SWIFT platform to transmit and receive monetary assets to and from its trading countries. One of the sector heavily impacted was the steel industries, which are commonly backed and guaranteed by EU traders and investors, who are now feeling the distraught of having to look for vital resources elsewhere. Russia is known for having surplus of prime scraps, those that ultimately get re-melted into newer batch of steel slabs. Russian originated and made fabricated raw metals are not too prominent within the US industries, although its recyclable contents are much more pronounced as an alternative for low cost steel conversions. The sanctions also adversely impacted the Nickel trading which Russia would have 10% stake within the world market. Nickel are commonly used for alloying specific grades of metal and also an important material for battery manufacturing.

 

IMS opposes war of any kind, so long as it is impeding on human rights and systemically leaves people displaced. While some believe that the ongoing war is better for this industry to cut off losses from the COVID pandemic and forgets about COVID altogether, however, we are very much within the middle of two overlapping world problems, where there are just overabundances of scarcities everywhere we go, starting from labor, workers, material, minerals, energy, and so forth.

How Western Regional Space Industries Can Benefit From Russia’s Retreat From Western Realms

by: John Oriilosa, International Business & Communication

Russian Soyuz rockets were much utilized in various sea faring fleets, which accommodated space program platforms for many western space pioneers, of which both Russian and Ukrainian resources had collectively supported. Soyuz rockets are vital for many aspects and they have been reliable for many consolidated material transport into orbit. Since sanctions had been placed into Russia by the western IGOs in the wake of invasion, it then retaliated by halting Soyuz rockets deployment to western industries. Given the circumstances, projections had been made entailing that Russia’s pull away could perhaps re-ignite western space invigorations and motivations to revamp and make use of all the resources allowable to replace the needs for Soyuz with a much more economical approach, and for this we will mainly rely on Space Exploration Technologies to fill that gap.
