IMT CuCrZr metal powder 15-53 microns, 5 kg

IMT CuCrZr metal powder 15-53 microns, 5 kg

IMT CuCrZr is a metal powder based on copper, alloyed with chromium and zirconium, designed for 3D printing using SLM and LPBF technologies. It is used in the production of high-tech electrical components, aerospace industry and precision engineering. The material combines exceptional thermal conductivity above 280 W/m·K and electrical conductivity with high mechanical characteristics. The 15–53 μm fraction ensures stable flowability by Hall ≤ 20 s/50g, allowing the creation of monolithic elements with complex geometry. The material is supplied in hermetic containers of 5 kg.

Advantages of CuCrZr powder in 3D printing

• High energy efficiency. Outstanding thermal conductivity parameters allow for designing maximally compact and powerful thermal regulation systems.
• Complex internal channels. The ability to accurately print conformal cooling channels of any configuration for instant heat removal.
• Mechanical durability. Unlike pure technical copper, CuCrZr alloy maintains stable strength and hardness even under strong heating.
• Uniform layer application. Increased particle sphericity minimizes friction between granules during powder distribution in the printer chamber.

Technological properties of CuCrZr powder

The metal copper powder from IMT is fully optimized for layer-by-layer laser melting. Thanks to the high sphericity of particles from 90% and above, the powder mass is perfectly distributed on the working platform of the 3D printer. This prevents the formation of micropores, voids and defects in the structure of the finished product, ensuring high bulk density and monolithic metal.

The composition of the CuCrZr alloy is specially balanced to achieve peak performance characteristics after the completion of the printing cycle and subsequent heat treatment. The introduction of chromium and zirconium eliminates the main drawback of pure copper - a tendency to deform under loads, while maintaining high conductivity indicators.

Applications

• Electrical engineering. Industrial printing of induction coils, complex contact groups and long-life welding electrodes.
• Aerospace industry. Manufacturing of combustion chambers for rocket engines and other high-load nodes with critical heat flow.
• Precision engineering. Creation of heat exchangers of complex geometric shape and cooling systems for powerful electronics.
