There are many material options available on the market, each with its own unique characteristics. From plastic to steel, aluminum to bronze, it is essential to carefully review the available options and compare them based on your project requirements. A material that is suitable for one application may not be suitable for another.
The choice of material must also be balanced from a financial point of view. It certainly should not be the first factor of choice, however the budget has an essential weight in maximizing the value obtained from the selected materials.In the case of complex or innovative projects, we start by creating prototypes and conducting tests to evaluate the behavior of the materials in real conditions. This experimental phase can help identify any problems or opportunities for improvement in material selection.
The selection of materials is a very complex topic which deserves a moment of preliminary study for the success of a project. We often take on orders in which a material is indicated, which is perhaps difficult to find, expensive, or not very suitable for the project, so together with our technical office we study the right solution to propose to the client. If you are starting a new project, or are having difficulty choosing materials, GSI is the right partner to help you.
