IMT CuSn10 Metal Powder 15-53 μm, 5 kg
IMT CuSn10 — is a metallic powder of tin bronze, designed for 3D printing using SLM and LPBF technologies. It is used in the production of industrial equipment parts, marine technology elements, electronics, as well as in the field of design and restoration. The material has high strength, hardness, anti-friction properties, and excellent resistance to corrosion, particularly in salty sea water. The 15–53 μm fraction ensures stable flowability of the powder mass, allowing the creation of monolithic components with minimal porosity. The material is supplied in sealed containers of 5 kg.
Advantages of CuSn10 powder in 3D printing
- Anti-friction parameters. An optimal choice for manufacturing units that constantly work under conditions of intense friction and sliding.
- Corrosion resistance. Printed products do not deteriorate under prolonged exposure to high humidity, steam, and aggressive salt water.
- Sequential processing. Finished components are easily subjected to milling, grinding, and final polishing to a mirror shine.
- Aesthetic properties. After finishing, the metal acquires a noble reddish-golden hue, which is relevant for decor.
Technological properties of CuSn10 powder
The metallic powder of tin bronze from IMT is fully adapted for layer-by-layer laser melting. Thanks to the high sphericity of the particles, the powder is evenly applied to the working area of the 3D printer, forming a dense layer. This eliminates the risk of internal voids or structural defects, guaranteeing the monolithic nature of the finished product.
The high tin content in the CuSn10 alloy provides the necessary rigidity and wear resistance, but retains sufficient plasticity of the metal. After the 3D printing process and basic thermal treatment, structures are able to withstand significant mechanical loads during operation without brittle fracture.
Applications
- Industrial equipment. Printing of bearing housings, sliding bushings, valves, and moving impellers of pumps.
- Marine technology. Manufacturing of propellers, elements of ship systems, fittings, and fasteners that come into contact with water.
- Electronics. Creation of wear-resistant contact groups, conductive elements, and specific terminals.
- Design and restoration. Production of exclusive fittings, copies of historical artifacts, and complex decor elements.
