Applications of Expanded Metal Foil Expanded metal foil is used across many industries, including aerospace, electronics, and automotive. Its ability to provide electrical conductivity while offering mass reduction makes it an essential component for EMI shielding, lightning protection, and filtration. No matter the sector, expanded metal foil adapts to meet the most demanding requirements, from aircraft safety to precision instruments. #Aerospace #EMIShielding #IndustrialApplications #InnovativeSolutions #CThruMetals

How do you show and explain how the manufacture of a product is lightyears ahead of competitors... without actually showing or explaining (in too much detail) how it's done? That's the challenge we recently undertook with CThru Metals, who have devised a breakthrough way of creating expanded metal. We had some pretty sweet drone shots of the impressive facility interior, but after reviewing we had to remove them since it showed too much of the "secret sauce" of how they achieve their results. Seriously, this stuff is top secret! They're also one of the few companies in the world who has passed testing to provide lightening strike protection for aircraft. They were even able to get us the actual test footage for use in the video (right at the 1:18 mark). You can check out the finished video below! https://lnkd.in/eNP5FTtt #Manufacturing #AmericanManufacturing #VideoMarketing

How is Expanded Metal Foil Made? The manufacturing process of expanded metal foil is both efficient and eco-friendly. It begins with a single roll of foil, which is then slit and stretched in one seamless process. The result is a strong, lightweight mesh that’s free of welds or woven intersections. This not only saves on material waste but also creates a product with enhanced durability. It’s an innovation that’s been pushing boundaries in metal manufacturing for years. #SustainableManufacturing #ExpandedMetalProcess #PrecisionEngineering #ManufacturingEfficiency

The Benefits of Expanded Metal Foil Why choose expanded metal foil? Its lightweight nature doesn’t compromise strength, making it an ideal material for a variety of industries. The open area in the mesh contributes to the reduced weight and increased airflow while still offering the superior conductivity and resistivity that you get from one solid piece of material. Expanded metal foil's versatility means it’s used in everything from EMI shielding to lightning strike protection. No matter the application, its benefits are clear.
