Metal powder Atomization
We produce metal powders of the highest quality from known or individually alloyed materials in a TÜV-certified process chain for metal 3D-printing.
The Atomiser AU 3000 from BluePower Casting Systems was developed for the fast and economical production of small quantities of high-quality metal powders up to about 50 kg. Compared to large production systems, frequent alloy changes are also possible without cross-contamination.
With crucible-based system, argon hot gas flow and the close-coupled atomizer, liquid metal becomes spherical metal powder for additive manufacturing processes in the atomization chamber.
Metal powder Processing
With our processing systems, we can optimize the metal powders for metal 3D-printing by air classification, sieving and drying.
The quality of the metal powder used is crucial for high reproducibility in the additive manufacturing process. Characteristic features here are, for example, the particle size distribution, the particle shape and the residual moisture. These have a decisive influence on the bulk density and flowability of the metal powder. The energy input of the laser, which depends on the metal powder, has a direct effect on the material structure and the functional properties of the component. Comprehensive quality assurance with subsequent processing is necessary to control the parameters mentioned and for additive manufacturing of high-quality components with good mechanical-technological properties.
Metal Powder Analytics
In our modern and extensively equipped laboratory, the metal powders can be fully analyzed.
