Alloy preparation from irregular powder
arcMELTER cold crucible was filled with irregular powder which was characterised by poor flowability causing pipe clogging in Direct Energy Deposition system. arcMELTER allowed us to prepare feedstock which work perfectly with our advanced grabbers during ultrasonic atomization process. This approach allowed us to transform the powder causing issues to a sphretical powder and by using the arcMELTER we additionally homogenized alloy with additional element to improve it thermal stability and the precipitation hardening effect. This advancement not only resolved the previous processing issues but also expanded the potential applications of the alloy, enabling the production of more advanced, high-performance components.
