Produce detailed, difficult-to-fabricate metal parts faster, and with less material waste and tooling costs than machining. This powder creates corrosion-resistant and weldable parts that look similar to traditional machined parts, but do not have the same strength. Due to rapidly changing temperatures in the printing process, the parts can form stresses and pores that may lead to cracking. This powder cannot be heat treated. A material certificate with traceable lot number and test report to confirm the material composition is included.
Powder is compatible with powder bed fusion (PBF) printing systems, such as direct metal laser sintering (DMLS), selective laser melting (SLM), and electron beam melting (EBM).
With a blend of aluminum, silicon, and magnesium, AlSi10Mg aluminum powder creates parts that are lightweight, yet strong to withstand stress from varying loads. Use it for parts that require thin walls, complex geometry, or need to support a load, such as gearboxes and brackets.
