PyroGenesis secures third order for coarse-cut Ti64 powder for DED applications
PyroGenesis Inc, based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, has received its third order from a US-based OEM serving the Additive Manufacturing, aerospace and defence industries. PyroGenesis will supply coarse-cut titanium powder produced using its NexGen plasma atomisation process.
PyroGenesis stated that the client’s name and the volume of material are to remain confidential for competitive reasons.
As with the previous orders, it covers Ti64 coarse-cut titanium powder with a particle size of 45–150 µm for use in Directed Energy Deposition (DED) applications in the aerospace and defence industries, including the production and repair of structural metal parts and components. PyroGenesis states that DED can be used to manufacture or repair structural metal components up to 5 metres in length.
“This third contract provides further validation of the quality and consistency of our titanium powder, while reinforcing our confidence in the strategic direction of our materials production business,” commented P Peter Pascali, President and CEO of PyroGenesis.
“As I have emphasised previously, securing repeat business from established clients is a key component of our long-term growth strategy. Repeat orders are particularly significant because they demonstrate a customer’s willingness to move beyond an initial purchase and make our powder part of their ongoing supply requirements. We are now seeing tangible evidence of this strategy taking hold. This growing commercial traction reinforces our confidence in the market opportunity and positions our materials production segment to become an increasingly meaningful contributor to the Company’s long-term revenue growth.”
