TMS 2026

AMAZEMET will be participating in the TMS 2026 Annual Meeting & Exhibition, held from March 15 to 19 at the San Diego Convention Center and Hilton San Diego Bayfront. As a key international gathering for the minerals, metals, and materials community, TMS provides a vital platform for cross-disciplinary technical exchange.

You can find us at Booth 419 throughout the exhibition. Our team will be available to discuss the latest developments in ultrasonic atomization and our rePOWDER platform. We invite researchers and industry professionals to visit us to explore how our technology addresses the challenges of custom alloy development and feedstock production.

Technical Presentations at TMS 2026

Members of the AMAZEMET team will deliver three presentations covering advancements in process control, novel heat sources, and lightweight alloy processing.

1. Advancing Ultrasonic Atomization through Ai-Driven Process Control While ultrasonic atomization is valued for its narrow particle size distribution and low gas consumption, its use has historically been limited by productivity rates. This session examines how machine learning and image processing are being utilized to automate the process. By implementing Ai-driven autonomous control, we aim to enable extended, unattended operation, significantly increasing the feasibility of overnight production for research environments.

  • Date: Tuesday, March 17, 2026

  • Time: 5:30 PM – 6:30 PM

  • Location: Exhibit Hall G

2. Ultrasonic Atomization of Lightweight Alloys for Additive Manufacturing: Processing of Al- and Mg-Based Alloys This presentation focuses on the specific challenges and results of processing aluminum and magnesium-based alloys. We will discuss how ultrasonic atomization handles these lightweight, reactive materials to produce high-quality spherical powder suitable for Additive Manufacturing (AM) applications.

  • Date: Tuesday, March 17, 2026

  • Time: 4:10 PM – 4:40 PM

  • Location: Room 21

3. Laser Ultrasonic Atomization Standard atomization techniques often face limitations based on their heat sources – induction heating is typically restricted to non-refractory metals, while plasma sources can offer limited thermal control for volatile elements. We will present a novel approach combining laser melting with ultrasonic atomization. This method allows for precise heat input, enabling the processing of both high-melting-point refractory metals and functional materials containing volatile components.

  • Date: Wednesday, March 18, 2026

  • Time: 10:20 AM – 10:40 AM

  • Location: Room 21

🤝 Connect with Us in San Diego

If you are attending TMS 2026, we encourage you to attend these sessions or visit us at Booth 419 to discuss your specific material requirements – from refractory metals like Tungsten or Rhenium to reactive lightweight alloys.

To ensure dedicated time for a technical discussion regarding our rePOWDER system or the Powder2Powder module, please contact us directly or use our contact form to schedule a meeting during the conference.
