3D Printing Alloy Materials Custom K403 Metal Powder refers to K403 alloy metal powder customized for 3D printing. K403 is a nickel-based cast high-temperature alloy with good thermal strength, oxidation resistance, and corrosion resistance. It is suitable for producing combustion chambers, afterburner components, and insulation screens for gas turbine engines operating below 950 ℃.

3D printing of K403 alloy powder

3D printing technology, also known as Metal Powder Sintering (SLM), uses this metal powder to print metal parts directly. During the printing process, the scraper lays a layer of metal powder on the substrate of the forming cylinder, and the laser beam selectively melts the powder according to the cross-sectional profile of each layer of the part, thereby processing the current layer. After the first layer of sintering is completed, the lifting system lowers the height of one cross-sectional layer, then spreads the powder and sinters the next layer, processing layer by layer until the entire part is sintered. This printing method can produce high-precision and high-strength metal parts suitable for aerospace, automotive, medical equipment, and other fields.

Recently, with the continuous development and innovation of 3D printing technology, the application of customized K403 alloy metal powder in the aerospace field has made significant progress. This high-performance material has successfully manufactured a series of complex and delicate components through 3D printing technology, providing strong support for the performance improvement and lightweight design of aircraft.

Application of 3D printing of K403 alloy powder in the aerospace field 

K403 alloy is highly favored in the aerospace industry for its excellent thermal strength, oxidation resistance, and corrosion resistance. However, traditional machining methods often need help to manufacture components with complex shapes and high precision requirements. The emergence of 3D printing technology has opened up new doors for the application of K403 alloy.

According to reports, an aviation enterprise has successfully used 3D printing technology to manufacture engine combustion chamber components based on K403 alloy powder. These components not only have complex shapes but also require extremely high temperature and oxidation resistance. Through 3D printing technology, enterprises can accurately control the distribution and density of materials, thereby achieving high-performance components.

In addition, 3D printing of K403 alloy powder has also played an important role in the lightweight design of aerospace vehicles. By optimizing printing parameters and process flow, researchers have successfully manufactured lightweight alloy components with excellent mechanical properties, effectively reducing the overall weight of the aircraft and improving its flight performance and fuel efficiency.
