Trusted Metal Fabricators in Rockford, IL
Voss Metals has been a trusted leader in the high-temperature metals industry since 1982. Our expertise lies in supplying and processing pure metals, alloys, and scrap materials for foundries and manufacturing facilities across North America and Europe. With a ISO 9000-certified quality system in place since 1997, we maintain rigorous standards for alloy identification, material sizing, and contamination control. Our team of metallurgical experts, including founder Dave Voss with advanced degrees from Dartmouth and Case Western Reserve University, brings decades of technical knowledge to every project. We operate a 25,000 sq. ft. facility equipped with advanced processing equipment, including four alligator shears and a briquetter for efficient material compaction.Our commitment to quality is demonstrated through annual customer audits and a track record of delivering precisely specified shipments. We specialize in handling challenging materials like cobalt-base alloys, tungsten carbide, and nickel-based superalloys, serving critical industries including aerospace, defense, and medical manufacturing. Our employees receive extensive training in X-ray fluorescence analysis and proper material preparation for induction melting. We maintain a 30-day payment guarantee for scrap suppliers while offering cost-saving alternatives to pure metals. With global relationships developed over 35 years, we provide reliable solutions for both metal procurement and scrap management.

Services
Metal Supply
We supply high-purity metals including cobalt, molybdenum, tungsten, and nickel alloys to industrial customers. Our inventory ensures consistent availability of critical materials for manufacturing operations. We provide both pure metals and cost-effective alloy alternatives to meet specific production requirements.
Scrap Processing
Our facility processes high alloy scrap materials with accurate sortation reporting and material valuation. We handle complex materials including tungsten carbide, nickel base alloys, and titanium scrap. We provide prompt payment within 30 days for all accepted materials.
Alloy Identification
Using Thermo Niton X-Ray fluorescence technology, we perform precise alloy identification for quality control. Our trained staff ensures accurate material characterization for both incoming scrap and outgoing products. This capability supports proper material sorting and specification compliance.
Material Sizing
We prepare metals to customer specifications using four alligator shears for precise cutting. Our briquetter compacts turnings and clips for efficient melting. This processing ensures optimal material handling and melting efficiency for our customers' furnaces.
Residue Processing
We process industrial residues containing valuable metals like cobalt, nickel, and molybdenum. Our methods recover usable materials from grinding sludges and production waste. This service helps manufacturers maximize material value from their production byproducts.
