Powder Materials for Special Usage
High-purity alloy powder can be applied to sputtering targets after densification by HIP. It is also effective for improving corrosion resistance by thermal spraying, overlaying and brazing.
Features
- Partially levitated molten metal within the water-cooled crucible with a bottom-pouring spout is atomized with jets of Argon gas.
- The combination of Levitation-melting and gas-atomization processes prevents impurities (e.g., oxygen) from being picked up from the crucible. This process enables to produce an uncontaminated and high purity powder.
Main applications
- High purity target materials
- Aerocraft parts
- Braizing filler
- Titanium cutting tools
- Marine plants and chemical plants
- Medical equipment parts
- Sports gear

High Speed Steel and Other Type of Tool Steel Powder
Features
- Gas atomization method has made it possible to produce spherical powder with high filling density and less oxygen content.
-
The combination with HIP (Hot Isostatic Pressing) has made it possible to produce materials
with homogeneous microstructure when materials on which hot working could not performed before or when it is difficult to produce materials by Melting Method.
Main applications
- Various rolls (Hot rolling and Cold rolling)
- Various tools (End Mill, Pinion Cutter, Broach Drill, Cutting tolls)
- Die materials, Die parts, Sintered Parts
