AdamIQ™ Powders and optimisation for Steel Additive Manufacturing

Larger volumes of repeatable Steel Powder quality

Significant volumes of Steel Powders in batch sizes from 200 kg to 3 tonnes, which means quality, reliability, and traceability, meeting the high standards and specifications of the Additive Manufacturing industry. Accurate sizing of the powder for your application.

Steel solution provider for Additive Manufacturing

ArcelorMittal complements its offering of the most common steel grades with numerical models to allow for faster printing, larger process windows and better printability: in essence, dialing in the critical process parameters of the machines. Unique steel alloys designed specifically for Steel Additive Manufacturing create opportunities for new applications and offer more printable and sustainable options compared to the standard materials already available.

AdamIQ™ Steel Powders serving all industries

The AdamIQ™ Steel Powders are offered in the size ranges suitable for all existing powder-based metal additive technologies (LPBF, BJ, DED...) in manufacturing industries such as aviation, defence, automotive, medical and energy. They can also be used in new technologies, such as hard coating of brake discs, helping Automotive OEMs and Tier Ones to comply with the Euro 7 regulation to reduce particle emissions.

“Innovation goes far beyond the work of our Global R&D teams. At ArcelorMittal, we strive every day to make innovation part of the mindset of our colleagues around the world. Additive Manufacturing is one of the key domains of our innovation focus and an area where we have been investing and building our capabilities for several years. Now, we are ready to scale up production and offer our customers and partners a reliable and competitive source of high-quality Steel Powders”.
