AMtrinsic® Spherical Ta Powder for Additive Manufacturing

Powders with the highest degree of processability

Right in step with the latest market developments and based on our long expertise in powder metallurgy, we have developed an atomized AMtrinsic® spherical Ta powder. It combines high corrosion resistance, thermal and electrical conductivity and excellent biocompatibility with necessary powder properties required by different Additive Manufacturing Technologies. Our powder is characterized by: very good flowability, high tap density, perfect spherical shape and narrow particle size distribution. AMtrinsic® spherical Ta powders are pre-conditioned for application in Laser Beam Melting (10-63 μm), Electron Beam Melting (63-105 μm) or according to customer requests.

Low O content powder as a unique feature

To achieve the best properties in printed parts, high purity and low oxygen content are essential requirements. With our unique technology, we are able to provide spherical Ta powder with O content below 400 ppm.
Upon request we can provide powders with ultra low oxygen content.
