Stainless steels – the true work horse of AM metal alloy powders
Stainless steel is an ideal metal to use in environments where high corrosion resistance is a must. Austenitic and duplex stainless steels have found many applications in the oil and gas industry. Several grades of precipitation-hardened stainless steels are developed and used in the aerospace industry. The medical industry is a third area where components manufactured by stainless steels are the ultimate choice.
The additive manufacturing technology provides significant gains when using stainless steels. Höganäs offers stainless steel-based metal powders in both the AM and Amperprint® series, covering several industrial requirements regarding cost, properties and standardization level.
