Engineering Experience

Southeastern Metallurgy provides advice and engineering support to those who are dealing with new designs, failure prone components, repairs or are manufacturing parts that can no longer be made according to the original prints. A list of representative projects is provided below. The combination of materials and mechanical engineering talent found in Southeastern Metallurgy is very powerful – we can do a lot more.
