Advanced Technology for Extreme Applications
Powder metal (PM) technology delivers what no other process can: extreme alloy compositions and an ultra-clean microstructure that offer increased performance and longer life in high-temperature and high-corrosion environments. ATI Powder Metals’ gas atomized, homogeneous pre-alloyed powders ensure a uniform microstructure that isn’t attainable by the blending of elemental powders.
Powder metal (PM) technology boosts the efficiency of jet engines and power generator turbines. It extends service intervals in critical parts for oil and gas systems, marine systems, nuclear systems, and other components in high-corrosion, hard-to-service environments. Powder delivers the most uniform grain structure achievable, in near-net shapes, to cut reject rates and costs in highly machined components. In sputtering target applications like magnetic data storage, PM delivers the extreme uniformity needed to provide accurate angstrom-thin coating and higher yield.
