Release new superalloy powder products at IAME 2020
On September 24, 2020, at the 2020 IAME exhibition, China’s leading aerospace-grade titanium alloy and high-temperature alloy powder manufacturer ZHMT High Performance Alloy Materials Technology Group released a new product for additive manufacturing under the theme of "Powder Drives Manufacturing the Future". GH4099 high temperature alloy powder material.
ZHMT displayed this GH4099 superalloy powder material, as well as a full range of metal powders and technical solutions for aerospace 3D printing at its booth.
At the press conference, Ma Teng, manager of the ZHMT R&D center, explained in detail the physical properties of GH4099 superalloy powder, powder morphology, high-temperature mechanical properties data of the material at 900℃, and the full range of ZHMT aerospace 3D printing to the present guests and online audiences. Special metal powder and related high-temperature alloy powder technical solutions. Once the new product was launched, it attracted great interest from industry users and partners, who came to consult and negotiate.
Mr. Zhang said: "Materials are the foundation and core of 3D printing, which determine 3D printing technology and future applications. Since its establishment in 2014, ZHMT has developed into a comprehensive powder material R&D and production manufacturer in the global milling technology category through independent innovation. It has more than 10 powder production lines including VIGA, EIGA, PREP, PA, etc. The current annual production capacity of metal powder materials is about 1,000 tons."
"The rapid development of ZHMT is due to the rapid application and steady development of additive manufacturing technology in aerospace, automobile manufacturing, mold and medical industries in recent years, especially the changes in the demand for metal powder and the demand cycle this year. It is more significant, the demand has increased by 2-3 times compared with previous years, and the demand cycle is more urgent. At the same time, there is some customized demand for powders used in batches."
"In terms of powder performance indicators, such as powder sphericity, fluidity, etc., ZHMT powder is equivalent to imported powder, and the macro indicators of some powders are even better than imported powder. The performance of parts after powder printing is basically the same as that of imported powder.
"With the mass processing and application of 3D printing applications, 3D printing metal powder materials have also ushered in an unprecedented period of opportunity. The demand for metal powder is expected to increase by about 35-60% every year. ZHMT will continue to work in this direction in the future. , To provide a complete set of technical solutions for industry customers."
