Our portfolio

Metal Powder Production

Our metal powder production focuses on high-nitrogen steel (HNS), tool steel, and stainless steel. Through our unique process, we achieve high material quality, performance, and yield with very fine powder. Thanks to high process variability and reproducibility of results, we combine maximum flexibility with consistent process reliability.

Application examples:
Additive manufacturing and metal injection molding of high-performance components for use in corrosion-prone environments, under high mechanical stress, or for biocompatible applications.
