Metalysis and LPW Technology, both UK-based companies, have formed a partnership that can change the future of additive manufacturing by offering cost-efficient and environmentally friendly spherical tantalum and tungsten powders. LPW's global reach in many countries, and its US-based subsidiary in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, promises to be a strong complement to Metalysis' innovative metal and alloy production process that electrolyses metal oxide into a molten salt bath -- a more environmentally friendly production method. Aerospace, biomedical, electronics, petrochemical, and automotive industries all stand to benefit from this new partnership creating lower-cost and greener additive manufacturing metal powders.
