History of Luma Metall AB

1930

Lumalampan AB establish in Stockholm. Owner KF

Started manufacturing of I ncandescent Light Bulbs 1935 Luma began the production of Tungsten Wire for its own Filaments 1943

Molybdenum Wire was added to the production program

1954

Gold plated wires for electron tubes was added to the program.

1955

Tungsten Rhenium which offers the possibility of high tensile strength.

1976 All wire production moves to Kalmar. 1994

LUMA METALL AB became an independent manufacturer owned by Atle. 2003 Change business direction to be quality leader of Gold plated and polished wire. Research started Stop production of filament

2004 LUMA METALL AB was acquired by SMG Group, USA

2005 Purchase of pilot line 2006 Investment are made in a new advanced precious metal plating line and an advanced polishing

  • line. Even a big investment for environment.

2007 New Management team

Why use gold plated wires

For some applications wires has to be plated to meet special requirements example:

  • To protect the wire from corrosion
  • To solder it together to other metals
  • To reduce the secondary emission of electrons

Some characteristics of tungsten:

  • Highest melting point of all metals
  • High strength at high temperatures
  • Good conductivity for heat and electricity - Remarkable corrosion resistance to many acids
  • High E-modulus
  • High absorption capacity for radioactive

radiation and X-rays

Some characteristics of tungsten with addition of Rhenium:

  • Superior hot strength and vibration strength
  • Higher re-crystallization temperatures
  • Greater specific resistance
  • Greater tensile strength
  • No brittleness in re-crystallized condition
  • Higher thermal stability

Some characteristics of molybdenum:

  • High melting-point
  • High hot strength
  • Low thermal expansion
  • High thermal conductivity
  • High elastic modulus
  • Low vapor pressure

Why use tungsten, tungsten/rhenium and molybdenum wires
