This places the powder at the forefront of high-strength aluminum additive manufacturing. Crucially, parts additively manufactured with A20X powder maintain high strength and fatigue properties even at elevated temperatures, outperforming other leading aluminum powders.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-size:12.0pt\">According to Mike Bond, Director of Advanced Material Technology at Aeromet, \u201cSince bringing the A20X alloy to market for additive manufacturing five years ago, we have seen significant adoption for high-strength, design-critical applications. By working with Rolls-Royce, Renishaw, and Phoenix Scientific Industries Ltd. (PSI), we have optimized processing parameters that led to record-breaking results, opening up new design possibilities for aerospace and advanced engineering applications.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-size:12.0pt\">The HighSAP project, backed by the UK\u2019s National Aerospace Technology Exploitation Programme (NATEP), was led by Aeromet and involved Rolls-Royce, Renishaw, and atomization expert PSI. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-size:12.0pt\">The A20X powder for additive manufacturing is derived from the MMPDS-approved A20X casting alloy, the world\u2019s strongest aluminum casting alloy, which is in use by a global network of leading aerospace casting suppliers.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-size:12.0pt\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.aeromet.co.uk\">www.aeromet.co.uk<\/a> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-size:12.0pt\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.a20x.com\/\">www.a20x.com<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-size:12.0pt\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.natep.org.uk\/\">www.natep.org.uk<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aeromet International Ltd., United Kingdom, announces that A20X, the aluminum alloy developed and patented by Aeromet, has cemented its status one of the strongest aluminum additive manufacturing powders commercially available after surpassing the key 500 MPa UTS mark.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":63082,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[444,440,441,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7960","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-aerospace-and-defense","category-news","category-news-articles","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
