The production powder has a significant effect in the component quality and manufacturing speed as Metal Additive manufacturing becomes more widely employed. Equispheres fills this gap with their brand-new, ground-breaking atomization technology, which creates a high-quality powder for AM.
High-performance metal powders for additive manufacturing in the automotive, aerospace, and defense sectors are the area of expertise for Equispheres, a materials research and engineering company. With our in-depth understanding of metallurgy and metal technology, they concentrate on creating cutting-edge, clean-tech solutions to assist in resolving issues in advanced manufacturing.
Equispheres’ patent-pending atomization technique produces a nearly-perfect powder. Its uniform size, sphericity, and consistent microstructure — as well as smoother surface and thinner oxide layer — result in more rapidly manufactured metal parts with superior mechanical properties
Economic and Performance Advantages:
- Increase production speeds and lower costs
- Increased design-allowable performance
- Equispheres powder lines
Powder Attributes:
- Superior flowability and spreadability
- Greater packing density and spread density
- Thin oxide layers with less water adsorption
- More uniform melt and solidification in every layer
- Safety
Powder Start-up Bundles
Equispheres powder provides significant cost reductions to part production and improvements to mechanical performance. These advantages can be realized by simply switching your current feedstock material to the Equispheres powder. That said, to obtain maximum benefit, the processing parameters need to be adjusted. These parameters depend on several factors including, but not limited to, the desired:
- Mechanical performance (e.g. strength, elongation)
- Surface finish
- Dimensional accuracy
- Printer machine type and configuration
- Cost profile
Equispheres offers start-up bundles that include the appropriate powder type (i.e. Precision, Performance or Production) along with applications engineering services to assist our customers in meeting their requirements.
