Recycling Graphite Components

Recycling Graphite Components

Semco is an environmentally conscientious graphite company. And this is a good industry to be environmentally conscientious in -- making graphite unavoidably involves coal and CO2 release into the atmosphere. While mining and making synthetic graphite has environmental costs, our industry is also crucial to the renewable energy and battery sectors of the economy, which are helping to switch our energy production to non-emitting technologies like solar. We are proud to be working on graphite components for the renewable energy sector, and we want to limit our industry’s emissions as well. To that end, this graphite company has prioritized a...

New photovoltaic technology using graphite materials

New photovoltaic technology using graphite materials

If you produce graphite materials or machine graphite components, or if you work in the graphite electrodes industry, there are huge opportunities on the horizon. The revolution in clean energy production and electric vehicles is real, and it is here. To produce some of the most important raw materials for the solar and battery industries, such as mono- and multi-crystalline silicon, high purity specialty graphite is essential. At Semco, we have the capacity and capabilities to produce high-purity crucibles and heaters, as well as various components produced out of carbon fiber. We also specialize in graphite fiberboard and felt products...

The Tech Side of Graphite Fabrication

The Tech Side of Graphite Fabrication

Your business is designing a manufacturing set-up. One of the constituent parts will be exposed to various chemicals and high heat. Graphite is considered for this part because it is chemically inert and stands up to extreme temperatures without degrading. Engineers make a mock-up of this manufacturing set-up and they Zoom call us at Semco. Customer: “Hi, we finished the mock-up of the apparatus and it looks like we’ll need a graphite mold about 7 or 8 inches long that looks kinda like this (holds up napkin drawing of future graphite component). Semco engineer: “That’s a nice drawing. Could you...

Lunch at Semco

Lunch at Semco

Lunchtime with Graphite Engineers Here’s a riddle: what do graphite engineers talk about over lunch? Need another minute? Ok, we’ll give you the answer: graphite engineering! Well, that’s at least one of the answers. The most important part of that riddle is the fact that in a graphite shop, the employees enjoy their lunch together -- at least they do at Semco. Lunch at Semco is a time when the crew has a chance to enjoy a meal, discuss current shop projects, review the daily news, and swap family stories. While COVID has changed the dynamic in the lunchroom to...

Interface with Clients

Interface with Clients

Semco Carbon’s Interface with Clients We live in the golden age of business communication. Whether you’re talking finance, graphite applications, or real estate, many e-commerce solutions exist to connect consumers with businesses and facilitate purchasing when face-to-face is not possible. With nearly everyone proficient in Zoom these days (even if we’re not all sure how to get that cat filter off our screen), businesses like Semco can “meet” with our clients when we need the rapid back and forth of conversation when working on complex graphite applications, but without unnecessary travel or the risk of COVID exposure. The truth is...
