Technology & Products

Key Products

Spherical Titanium Alloy Powders (TC4, TA15); Nickel-based Superalloy Powders (Inconel 718, 625); Refractory Metal Powders (Tantalum, Tungsten, Niobium, Molybdenum); Special Master Alloys; High-Entropy Alloy Powders

Technological Advantage

Maintains a proprietary database and material design software to customize alloy compositions for specific AM processes, achieving higher cleanliness and lower gas content than standard industrial grades.

Differentiation

Value Proposition

Provides high-purity, low-oxygen spherical powders with superior flowability, enabling the production of critical aerospace components and medical implants with reduced defect rates and enhanced mechanical properties.

How They Differentiate

Differentiates through a focus on 'refractory' and 'high-purity' niches, offering a broader range of rare metal alloys (Ta, Nb, W) compared to competitors focused primarily on standard Ti and Ni alloys.
