Following a lengthy gestation period, metal matrix composites (MMCs) a
re now achieving commercial success as a result of their weight, perfo
rmance, and cost benefits. Many of the processing and finishing proble
ms initially encountered have been solved, allowing complex components
to be produced routinely. Aerospace Metal Composites (AMC) is at the
forefront of these developments, as a producer and processor of advanc
ed PM materials.
