Plasma 3D printing of heat-resistant steel parts

Stage: Research and development
Plasma 3D printing of heat-resistant steel parts

Layer-by-layer deposition synthesis of heat-resistant steel parts by the plasma arc method — a direction the centre pursues jointly with research institutes.

Application: manufacture and restoration of gas turbine engine and special equipment parts for which no ready technological solutions exist.

The PL-MetCore metallographic complex serves as the control instrument here: the structure of the deposited metal is examined at every iteration of the process modes.
