How Atomized Spherical Magnesium Alloy Powder Enhances SLS 3D Printing Performance?

🔹 Issues of Concern of Customers

How can manufacturers improve the density, mechanical strength, and efficiency of SLS 3D printing while minimizing powder waste? This is a common challenge faced by engineers and researchers working with advanced metal additive manufacturing.

🔹 Pain Points of Industry
Many commonly used powders in SLS 3D printing, such as aluminum or standard alloys, suffer from issues like:

• Poor powder flowability leading to uneven powder spreading.
• Hollow particles that increase porosity and reduce part strength.
• High oxygen content, which negatively impacts mechanical properties.
• Excessive material waste, raising production costs.

These issues create bottlenecks in scaling additive manufacturing for aerospace, automotive, and defense industries.
