Additive Manufacturing
Our Additive Manufacturing metal powders are developed and manufactured by the global steel market leaders BÖHLER and UDDEHOLM in dedicated powder manufacturing plants in Kapfenberg (Austria) and Hagfors (Sweden).
Our powders are produced using latest vacuum induction melting and atomization techniques, with analysis and testing performed in-house at our state of the art metallurgical laboratories.
Our material portfolio goes beyond standard material grades commonly used in Additive Manufacturing applications. We develop dedicated high performance steel and nickel alloy materials for use in specific industry applications such as High Pressure Die Casting, Plastic Injection Molding and Oil & Gas.
All of our 3D printing powders are available in particle size ranges to suit both Laser Powder Bed (15-45μm) and Laser Powder Deposition (45-90μm & 45-150μm) technologies.
