Inert gas atomised Stainless Steel Powder, it comprises chromium, nickel, and molybdenum with an austenitic microstructure, which is particularly used for applications requiring intergranular corrosion resistance. It has excellent weldability in laser and electron-beam additive manufacturing processes. Solution annealing can improve its corrosion resistance. Most situations do not require solution annealing, which is application specific.
Post-processing methods include traditional machining, abrasive flow machining, shot peening, grinding, polishing, chemical milling/etching, and others. Parts made from 316L generally have service temperatures of up to 425 °C (800 °F), beyond which chromium carbides precipitate. Maximise your printer’s uptime by keeping it loaded and running with this versatile powder.
Also avaiblable in particle sizes :
• Less than 20 microns for Binder Jetting (BJT), Metal Injection Molding (MIM) or specific processes targeting very thin walls.
• 53-105 microns typically for Electron Beam Melting (EBM, E-PBF) and Laser Metal Deposition (LMD).
• Specific sizing can be considered under conditions.
