[Technical Introduction] Heat-Resistant Aluminum Alloy for Metal 3D Printers
By using aluminum alloys with added transition metals, it has been confirmed that values show 1.5 to 2.0 times higher than conventional levels!
At JAMPT, we are working on utilizing a new aluminum alloy powder for metal 3D printers in new applications through additive manufacturing, based on a patent implementation agreement. The JIS AC8A alloy is well-known as a heat-resistant aluminum alloy for casting. However, when this alloy is formed using a metal 3D printer, it does not achieve the high-temperature strength that is conventionally known. To improve this, it has been confirmed that using an alloy with added transition metals shows values 1.5 to 2.0 times higher than conventional ones. In the manufacturing process, a laser-based metal 3D printer is used, and there is no need to perform the conventional T6 treatment (510°C solution treatment ⇒ water quenching ⇒ aging). 【Chemical Composition (%)】 ■Si: 10 ■Cu: 1 ■Mg: 1 ■Ni: 1 ■Fe: 2 ■Al: bal. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
