Exactly this thing made revenue in ten thousands (even in non Covid times)with bigger losses and less cash and it didn’t go to bankruptcy.
Am I excited jumping for joy nope. Setting up additional domestic manufacturers is more important to me as they will drive any money increases.
I had not seen you had posted this already and I just posted oops
No I try not to dig too deep these days into things so that I don’t get too excited or carried away ha!
Yeah but he was more 3D printing, but he’s moved on. Interesting in the diagrams

“[0020] The methods of manufacturing heat pipes generally include shaping an amorphous metal to form a mechanical support structure having a channel extending from an exterior surface to an interior surface opposite the exterior surface. The interior surface can define an interior cavity. The mechanical support structure can be shaped by molding or other suitable process. For example, an amorphous metal ingot can be melted and loaded into a mold, such as by injection molding or other suitable molding process, to form an amorphous metal mechanical support structure.”
They have already in IP filings and publications .... if you want to look at it that way.
Hmmm

“Thermo-mechanical processing”...bmg maybe?
Just a sample

It really hurts my head at times reading them because I’m like is this supposed to be an invention or legal mumbo jumbo
Reason I posted because Tyco/Covidien has references BMG’s and Liquidmetal in their past filings:

Just some excerpts:
“[0045] In some embodiments, second engagement member 234 is a non-uniformly shaped protrusion configured to facilitate interference fit bonding 235 between elongated body 231 and blade 232. In other embodiments the second engagement member 234 is disposed on the the distal end of blade 232 rather than on the proximal end of the elongated body 231, such that the non-uniformly shaped protrusion is still configured to facilitate interference fit bonding 235 between elongated body 231 and blade 232. Additionally, in some embodiments, blade 232 is injection molded about second engagement member 234 to solidify and define interference fit bonding 235 between elongated body 231 and blade 232. The injection molding process allows for blade 232 to be formed from amorphous materials, e.g., metallic amorphous materials or metallic glass amorphous materials, that have higher material strength properties than the titanium or titanium alloys that are used to form elongated body 231. The injection molding process also avoids the added manufacturing cost of machining intricate features onto blade 232.”
“[0012] A method of manufacturing a waveguide of an ultrasonic surgical instrument provided in accordance with aspects of the present disclosure includes forming an elongated body defining a non-uniformly shaped protrusion extending from a distal end of the elongated body and injection molding an amorphous material over the non-uniformly shaped protrusion to form a blade fixedly engaged with and extending distally from the elongated body”

Ok so John Kang is no longer “tied” to LMC. However, unofficially we all know that he lurks somewhere....
Well being cool or not is not a requirement of this board so glad for that.
Not the bearer of bad news. I just shared the article since it was an entity we were tied back to, without saying Liquidmetal or any BMG in it. :)
Oh what the heck ...
Since I’m bored... so about a third of 1% of shares outstanding moves this stock down almost 20%.... who believes manipulation or (insert tonight here)

[0046] The housing 102 of the device 100 may include molded elements 104 (e.g., 104-1, 104-2) that are positioned in gaps, spaces, slots, or other areas between portions of a housing member 101. The molded elements 104 may define, along with the housing member 101, portions of the exterior surface of the device 100. The housing member 101 may be formed from or include a conductive material, such as metal (e.g., aluminum, steel, stainless steel, titanium, amorphous alloy, magnesium, or other metal or alloy), carbon fiber, or the like. The molded elements 104 may be formed from or include a polymer material, a reinforced polymer material (e.g., fiber reinforced), ceramic, or any other suitable material. The molded elements 104 may be formed of a substantially non-conductive and/or electrically insulating material, or otherwise configured to electrically (e.g., conductively and/or capacitively) isolate or insulate portions of the housing member 101 from each other, as described in greater detail herein. In some cases, the molded elements 104 may be formed by injection molding a material into a gap, space, slot, or other void defined in the housing member 101.
Yep couple weeks back...Interesting application
Inventor is third guy down
https://www.roctool.com/company/about-us
Based out of China
He was consulting as late as March
Foley and Lardner LLP
Still an application as those are published in Thursday’s ... getting too excited huh?
Still reflecting BMG post 2016

[0060] In some examples, the interior or inner portion of the composite member can include any material that has a desired material property or properties and can be welded, bonded, adhered, or otherwise joined to an exterior portion. For example, the interior portion can include organic materials such as polymeric materials, ceramic materials, metallic materials, or combinations thereof. In some examples, the interior portion can include a metallic material such as aluminum, copper, steel, or alloys or combinations thereof. In some examples, the interior portion can include a metallic material having a foamed structure or a bulk metallic glass. In some examples, the interior portion can itself be a composite material, such as a carbon reinforced polymer material, ceramic reinforced polymer material, a metal matrix composite material, a ceramic matrix composite material, or other composite materials. The interior portion can have any desired thickness. For example, the interior portion of the composite member can have a thickness of several millimeters. In other examples, however, the interior portion of the composite member can have a thickness such that it extends substantially entirely across an entire width of the electronic device.
[0061] In some examples, the exterior or outer portion of the composite member can include any material that has a desired material property or properties and can be welded, bonded, adhered, or otherwise joined to an interior portion. For example, the exterior portion can include organic materials such as polymeric materials, ceramic materials, metallic materials, or combinations thereof. In some examples, the exterior portion can include a metallic material such as steel, titanium, or alloys or combinations thereof. In other examples, the exterior portion can include precious or semi-precious metals such as silver, gold, platinum, or alloys or combinations thereof. Alternatively, the exterior portion can include ceramic materials, such as alumina or sapphire, zirconia, carbides, nitrides, borides, oxides, or combinations thereof. The exterior portion can further include a metallic material such as a bulk metallic glass. In some examples, the exterior portion can itself be a composite material, such as a carbon reinforced polymer material, ceramic reinforced polymer material, a metal matrix composite material, a ceramic matrix composite material, or other composite materials.
At least some sort of loose or quasi licensing agreement.
Well Amorphology does use Engel Liquidmetal Machine ... it’s in one of their pictures
Don’t count Lugee out but Doug H. Can be interesting at times and it’s his baby and he may not want to sell
I believe that picture has been out there for a while...
Hope he’s got at least 20 bucks to buy a new T-shirt ....
Plus Otis has Been with LMC for years now
Pariah to Liquidmetal = no information
From LG and extensive reference of amorphous metal use.

lol honestly the frame is not something I would expect BMG to be used in, could be other core components maybe. Not just talking about iPhone.
BB4 is that your new boat?
Man wonder how they would feel if this was like zero cents or bankrupt .... whew anger management
Tell me about it .... but you know some folks are “smarter” than everyone or everything else - they’re experts at a lot of things. Can you imagine them running Apple or Microsoft? Or wait maybe Liquidmetal? :)
You ask now? They had it listed previously as COVID being a risk ....
