Problems solved by technology

Compared with the two, the particle size of the powder produced by the atomization method is finer, but the traditional atomization process is easy to cause high powder inclusion content, satellite ball, hollow ball powder; the powder prepared by the plasma rotating electrode method has high sphericity and high purity, but The particle size of the powder is relatively coarse, which is not suitable for 3D printing technology. Therefore, it is very important to adopt a new atomization technology and integrate a series of powder treatment processes to provide a method for preparing alloy powder for 3D printing.
