Tekna Innovates with Advanced Ti64 Coarse Powders for L-PBF Machines

In today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape, the advancement of L-PBF printing machines has opened new possibilities for using larger powder size, marking a transformative shift in the market. Addressing this emerging demand, Tekna is introducing a range of Ti64 coarse powders, specifically engineered for L-PBF applications. These powders are optimized for use with varying layer thicknesses, including 60 µm, 90 µm, and above.

By leveraging its proprietary plasma atomization technology, Tekna produces Ti64 powders that are highly spherical and free from internal porosity. This results in powders with higher density and flowability, which translates into superior mechanical properties in the final printed parts. Consequently, this enhances the end-user production yield and part reliability.
