AUW Water Atomizers
While the gas as well as ultra-sonic atomizer solutions are designed for the production of spherical powders by avoiding any contact to fast quenching media during particle formation, water atomized powder typically have a more irregular shape which is an advantage for some applications like recycling/refining process, press & sinter process and others. However, it is also possible to produce almost spherical, fine powder by water atomization with appropriate process parameters, which makes the powder potentially suitable for AM applications. Compared to gas atomization the running costs are signficantly lower..
