PyroGenesis gains Boeing approved supplier status for its titanium Additive Manufacturing powder
PyroGenesis Inc, headquartered in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, has received official confirmation of approved supplier status with Boeing. The company stated that its Ti64 ‘coarse’ metal powder, with a particle size that is within the range of 53-150 µm, has been qualified for use and added to Boeing’s qualified list of metal powders available for use in Additive Manufacturing.
“PyroGenesis is proud to achieve official supplier status with Boeing,” said P Peter Pascali, President and CEO of PyroGenesis. “The high standard of Ti64 metal powder produced at PyroGenesis Additive for Boeing is the result of years of groundbreaking design and engineering work that went into developing our NexGen™ plasma atomisation process.”
Massimo Dattilo, Vice-President of PyroGenesis Additive, added, “Our stated goal to produce some of the highest quality metal powders in the Additive Manufacturing industry required being assessed by the highest quality client under the toughest standards. Having received qualification of our “coarse” powder, we look forward to serving the needs of Boeing and its parts manufacturing and service centres with metal powder produced by PyroGenesis’ NexGen™ plasma atomisation system.”
PyroGenesis invented the plasma atomisation process and coined the term ‘plasma atomisation’ in its original patent. The company has created proprietary, patented and advanced plasma technologies that are being vetted and adopted by multiple multibillion-dollar industries in four key markets: iron ore pelletisation, aluminium, waste management, and Additive Manufacturing.
