Titanium Degradation Study

Webinar on demand from our additive manufacturing experts

Titanium Powder Degradation in Additive Manufacturing

As metal additive manufacturing continues to be implemented in production applications, end-users are raising quality control questions about the quality of powder and its ability to be reused for future builds. Carpenter Additive carried out a powder degradation study to investigate the oxygen content of various grades of titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) powder during selective laser melting and material reprocessing against ASTM B348 standards, including the effects of powder blending and “topping up” strategies. Join the metallurgical and additive manufacturing experts from Carpenter Additive for this on-demand webinar exploring the results of the study.

Electrode Inert Gas and Plasma Atomization Comparison Whitepaper

Our team of metallurgical and additive experts compared titanium powder created through both the electrode inert gas and plasma atomization processes and created this whitepaper. The result support the key conclusion that EIGA and PA Ti64 powders for additive manufacturing are statistically equivalent along several quantitative measures, including oxygen level, contamination, density, flowability, and morphology. Information available for both laser and electron beam powder bed material.
