IMT TA15 titanium powder 15-53 microns

IMT TA15 titanium powder 15-53 microns

IMT TA15 is a high-performance "near-alpha" class titanium powder (Ti-6Al-2Zr-1Mo-1V), designed for 3D printing using SLM and LPBF technologies. It is used in the aerospace industry, engine manufacturing, and for the creation of special equipment. The material is created for projects where the standard Grade 5 can no longer cope with temperature loads. Thanks to balanced alloying with zirconium and molybdenum, this material demonstrates impressive thermal stability and retains its working characteristics during prolonged operation at temperatures up to 500°C. The 15–53 μm fraction ensures high accuracy of reproduction and is ideal for precise SLM systems. The material is supplied in hermetically sealed containers of 5 kg.

Advantages of TA15 powder in 3D printing

• Excellent heat resistance. The material is designed to replace the standard Grade 5, as it effectively retains its working characteristics at temperatures up to 500°C.
• Excellent weldability. Low propensity for microcrack formation during rapid laser heating and cooling in the printer chamber.
• Maximum purity. Plasma atomization technology excludes internal impurities, which is critically important for the viscosity of destruction and the durability of parts.
• Stable layer application. The sphericity of particles according to SEM analysis is ≥ 90%, guaranteeing uniform powder deposition by the recoater.

Technological properties of TA15 powder

The metallic titanium powder from IMT is fully optimized for layer-by-layer laser melting using SLM and LPBF technologies. The alloy composition has a complex structure, where aluminum acts as the main hardener of the alpha phase, and vanadium stabilizes the overall structure of the material. Strict laboratory control of purity and low oxygen content completely prevent the metal from becoming brittle during sintering.

Considering the physicochemical characteristics and high activity of titanium, a titanium platform is necessarily used during printing, and the presence of an inert argon-based environment is required in the working chamber. The powder has stable flowability and density indicators, which ensures uninterrupted production of thick-walled and openwork elements with high thermal fatigue resistance.

Applications

• Aerospace industry. Industrial printing of high-load power brackets, aircraft fuselage parts, and elements of the internal lining of aircraft.
• Engine manufacturing. Manufacturing of working blades of compressors and discs of aircraft engines, which require high fatigue resistance at prolonged operating temperatures.
• Special equipment. Creation of body parts, specific nodes, and protective elements that work in thermally aggressive and extreme environments.
