Alloy materials with "zero expansion"! Also a substitute for aluminum and stainless steel! [Proven in the automotive, aerospace, and semiconductor industries]
LEX-ZERO is, as its name suggests, an alloy material that is effectively "zero expansion." It has been successfully developed and industrialized through unique alloy design and melting and refining technologies. It boasts lower thermal expansion properties than Super Invar, which is considered to have the smallest thermal expansion coefficient (α) among practical metal materials. I am confident that it will be a key solution not only for current challenges related to high precision but also for advanced challenges expected in the future. 【Features】 - Among practical metal materials, it has one of the world's smallest thermal expansion coefficients → 0±0.19ppm/K (20-25°C) - Capable of accommodating sizes from small to super large (from 10g to 15t) - High near-net shape capability - High integrity (for applications requiring defect-free quality, it can be processed through forging) - Quick response with block material stock (400×400×150mm)
