Metal
Powder Alloys

Stainless steel, titanium, Inconel, and aluminium powders for aerospace, medical, automotive, and tooling applications via DMLS, SLM, and Binder Jetting.

Industrial AM materials

Metal powders for AM are highly engineered: particle size distribution, sphericity, flowability, and alloy chemistry all affect final part quality. Understanding your powder is as important as understanding your machine parameters.

Titanium Ti-6Al-4V printed via DMLS achieves UTS of ~1,200 MPa — matching aerospace bar stock — with the full geometric freedom of additive manufacturing.

Common alloy families

  • 316L Stainless Steel — corrosion-resistant, medical and food-grade
  • Ti-6Al-4V — aerospace structural and osseointegrated implants
  • Inconel 625/718 — high-temperature turbine and aerospace components
  • AlSi10Mg — lightweight structural aerospace and motorsport parts
  • 17-4 PH Stainless — high-strength tooling and defence applications
  • Cobalt-Chrome — dental restorations and orthopaedic implants
