Currently, 3D printing metal powder materials include stainless steel, die steel, nickel alloys, titanium alloys, cobalt-chromium alloys, aluminum alloys and bronze alloys. Iron-based alloys are the most commonly used metal material in engineering technology. These metals are most commonly used to create complex structures, like stainless steel for 3D printing. This technology is more durable…

What are Nickel Alloys Used For?
Nickel Alloys are metals that combine nickel as the main ingredient with another material (usually titanium or copper, aluminum and iron, respectively). Combining two materials together can give it more desirable functions like higher strength or resistance to corrosion. Because of its unique properties, it can be used in multiple devices across many industries. The…
What is Nickel Alloy Composition?
Nickel alloy can be described as a type of alloy that is made out of metal. There are many uses for it. Nickel is used in plating, but can also be found in many other products. A variety of sources are available for nickel. There are many companies that offer nickel in different shapes for…
Alloys and Their Melting Temperatures
An alloy is a mixture of several metals. Alloys are used in a variety of applications. Most are formed by mixing metals in a molten state. They then solidify in moulds.Different types of alloys have different melting temperatures. These are determined by the structure and composition of the alloy. Metals with impurities tend to have…
