FAQ
We offer a comprehensive selection of metal powders, encompassing ferrous, non-ferrous, superalloy, soft and hard magnetic, coating, and additive manufacturing powders, catering to a wide range of applications and industries.
Advanced Powder Production: We use gas, water, and plasma atomization, plus PREP technology, to create high-quality metal powders. This yields spherical particles for excellent flowability (MIM, PM, additive manufacturing), custom particle size for strong sintering, and consistent purity for superior mechanical properties. Our PREP process delivers ultra-fine, high-purity, uniform particle size powders for demanding applications (aerospace, medical) cost-effectively.
Powder Purification: Our tri-mode system (vacuum degassing, electromagnetic refining, ultra-fine sieving) ensures top quality by removing impurities, enhancing microstructure, and guaranteeing consistent particle size.
Precision Manufacturing: MIM and Press-Sinter technology produce high-density components (96-99% wrought strength) with near-net shape precision, minimizing machining. We work with various materials, including stainless steel, titanium, copper, and superalloys.
