Deep Sea Solutions to Combat Saltwater Corrosion and Extreme Pressures
Our technology is used to create underwater hulls for deep sea exploration, and military operations. The sea, especially deep sea, is a harsh environment, which means everything we produce must be able to withstand extreme pressures, and incredibly corrosive environments. They must also be lightweight so that energy can be conserved. Additionally, it is important that a product can be made buoyant for its lengthy travels under the water. Amalga is able to address all of these factors and more, as we provide custom solutions for all of our customers.
Why composites?
Steel and aluminum are both highly corrosive, heavy and costly to manufacture. Composites give us the ability to create lightweight, custom solutions that are naturally corrosion-resistant and able to withstand 5x the pressure of steel or aluminum. Composites are naturally more buoyant, and lightweight which is incredibly important as it saves energy upon retrieval when an underwater hull has completed its voyage or is called to the surface for data retrieval.
