Mechanoweld

Mechanoweld® products have been designed for the additive manufacturing by powder deposition of LMD , powder cladding and plasma deposition. The martensitic microstructure provides a high hardness in the as deposited conditions together with a unmatched toughness of the alloyed matrix. This combination of effects allows a seamless deposition on a wide processing conditions windows in a crack free and fully dense microstructure.

Main material characteristics

  • Outstanding welding behavior
  • Reduced HAZ
  • Machinability and possibility to reach gloss finishing
  • Crack free and fully dense microstructure
