| So, Fisher turned to Arvin TD Center which coated the dies using a thermal diffusion process that metallurgically "welds" a layer of vanadium carbide to the die surface. New titanium carbide and vanadium carbide alloys, ceramic powders and laves phase alloys are available for wear resistance under a wide variety of conditions. Optimize the "MKBY Vanadium recovery process", minimizing the ramp-up period to full production at Lac Dore -- Provide a research and development site for new processes leading to the production of additional products such as; Vanadium Carbide, Vanadium Nitride, Vanadium Hydride and other compounds -- Further MKBY's objective to be the lowest cost producer of high-purity Vanadium products in the world |
