Powder Characterization For Selecting A Material Of Construction
By Tim Freeman, Director Of Operations, Freeman Technology
For powder processors, material of construction or surface finish choice is an important element of design, critical to achieving the fundamental compatibility between powders and process that underpins successful long-term performance. A range of metals and polymers is available to cope with the demands of the powder processing industries, but choosing between them requires a considered cost-benefit analysis.
