Cobalt-based powders for additive manufacturing processes stand for premium performance. High strength, excellent ductility, biocompatibility, and corrosion resistance make them ideal for demanding applications such as medical technology and implants. Precisely manufactured, reliably consistent in quality – for maximum component performance and competitive advantage.
Additive manufacturing processes offer freedom in design, short lead times and minimized tooling costs. The range of powders for additive manufacturing processes is constantly being expanded and improved to meet the increasing demands on the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of printed parts in toolmaking, the aerospace industry and the automotive industry as well as in the medical industry.
Cobalt-based powders for additive manufacturing essentially comprise complex Cobalt-Chrome (Molybdenum) alloys with high tensile strength combined with very good ductility. Due to their excellent biocompatibility and corrosion resistance, such alloys are favored for use as implants in orthopedic surgery and dental technology.
L175PA is characterized by a high tensile strength combined with very good ductility. Due to its biocompatibility and corrosion resistance, it is often used in orthopedic surgery as a joint replacement or as part of various implants, as well as in dental technology.
