AS07

ALD‘s EBuild® 850 is a new player in #AdditiveManufacturing, complementing our leading inert gas atomizers for the production of high-quality spherical #MetalPowders. By combining large-scale powder production with our EBuild® systems, we are further advancing E-PBF (electron beam powder bed fusion) as an economically viable technology for industrial applications.   A common challenge in metal powder fabrication is managing rejected powder that doesn’t meet the required size specifications for modern powder bed systems. Without a solution, this rejected powder can end up as waste, contributing to environmental concerns.   To address this, #ALD has developed an innovative powder recycling process using additive manufacturing. The EBuild® 850 system can process powders with a broad distribution range, making it ideal for both large-scale part production and #recycling. By utilizing E-PBF to create powder-filled #ingots, the system achieves build rates exceeding 1000 cm³ per hour—setting a new industry benchmark. These ingots can then be converted back into high-quality powder in ALD’s #EIGA systems, helping to promote a sustainable circular economy.   In addition, this approach also offers safer, more efficient handling of powder, as the powder-filled ingots are easier to manage and store than loose powder.   ALD is dedicated to advancing sustainable practices in the industrial sector, leading the way toward a greener future. Don’t miss to meet our ALD Experts at #Formnext2024 next week. You can visit us in Hall 12, Booth B89. #sustainability #engineering #ALDVacuumTechnology  

#PowderMetallurgy has a long tradition with a wide range of applications. However, the current boom around #AdditiveManufacturing has awakened this Sleeping Beauty of #Metallurgy and opened up further interesting applications. Ceramic-free and spherical #powders are of particular interest for #AM.   #ALDVacuumTechnology is the market and technology leader for vacuum inert gas atomizers used in the production of high-quality metal powders. In addition, #ALD has extensive experience in combining various melting technologies with inert gas atomization systems to address particular material requirements. Our clients can choose between two main atomizer types, namely #EIGA and #VIGA, for charge weights from 5 kg up to 2500 kg. Customized VIGA and EIGA design variations are available to meet customer specific requirements.   Vacuum induction melting and inert gas atomization is the leading process for production of a variety of high-performance metal powders and essential for quality manufacturing of Ni-based super-alloys as well as Fe-, Co-, Cr-based and other special alloy powders. In the VIGA system, a vacuum induction melting unit is integrated with an inert gas atomization unit. The starting materials are melted using electromagnetic induction and is atomized by a high-pressure inert gas jet.   The electrode induction melting process with inert gas atomisation was developed and patented by ALD as an alternative, ceramic-free melting and atomization process for the production of high-purity, reactive and refractory metal and precious metal powders. Today, the EIGA process is one of the leading processes for producing of high-quality powders from titanium, zirconium, niobium and tantalum alloys.   Don’t miss the opportunity to learn more about ALD’s Powder Metallurgy processes and how they are connected to Additive Manufacturing at #Formnex2024.

Vielfalt verbindet - #ALD verbindet!   Wir freuen uns über die Auszeichnung der Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung als „Vorbild in Vielfalt & Diversity“! 🌟 Wir fördern aktiv #Chancengleichheit sowie #Geschlechtergerechtigkeit und sind somit Vorreiter in Sachen #Vielfalt und #Inklusion.😊 Wir sind davon überzeugt, dass #Diversität nicht nur die Unternehmenskultur bereichert, sondern auch Sichtweisen sowie Blickwinkel verändert und somit zu einem langfristigen Unternehmenserfolg beiträgt. 🔝 Für uns als ALD ist deshalb klar💡: Vielfalt verbindet und schafft für alle die Möglichkeit, sich zu entwickeln und zu entfalten!💛 #Vielfaltschätzenundfördern   #faz #diversity #wertschätzung #fördern #zukunftgestalten #hanau

#AdditiveManufacturing (#AM), commonly known as #3D printing, is a revolutionary production process that creates objects layer by layer from digital models. This technology allows for complex designs, customization, and reduced waste compared to traditional #manufacturing methods. With applications across industries - from #aerospace to #healthcare - AM is transforming how products are designed, manufactured, and delivered, fostering innovation and efficiency. With our EBuild®, #ALD has made a significant step towards industrial-scale additive manufacturing. The EBuild® stands out as the world’s largest Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion (E-PBF) system, engineered for large-scale parts and maximum #productivity. It offers a build volume of at least 850 x 850 x 1000 mm³, the highest beam power currently available and a detachable build chamber which minimizes downtime during production cycles, facilitating streamlined operations.   Benefits at a glance: ► the high temperature #vacuum process eliminates cracks, porosity and the uptake of impurities such as oxygen, resulting in the best material #quality ► increased #efficiency of end products such as turbines ► significant reduction of material waste compared to conventional manufacturing processes ► lower #carbonfootprint over the product life cycle ► in-situ process control via backscattered electron imaging for quality assurance   Don’t miss the opportunity to speak directly with our AM Experts at #Formnext2024 about the advantages our systems can bring to your company. You can visit us in Hall 12, Booth B89. If you are interested in learning more about #VacuumMetallurgy, Inert Gas Atomization and Metal #Powder Production, and how they relate to our EBuild® 850, be sure to look out for our upcoming Formnext LinkedIn posts.
