PowderLife is a unique AM powder lifecycle management system which strictly controls risk for manufacturers, adding confidence, reliability and traceability in metal powder production and repeated AM builds.
Metal powder characteristics change during repeated builds on AM machines. Don’t waste money assuming your powder is good, know your powder is good with PowderLife.
Adding certainty
PowderLife focuses on the powder in the AM process – tracking, measuring, controlling at every point from initial supply to re-use. Of course, we can supply carefully specified metal powder from our extensive standard range or develop custom alloys to suit your applications, but with PowderLife we can also offer the certainty that from first use to last build your powder remains within your specification.
This unique powder lifecycle management system starts with our AM qualified application engineers reviewing your application and requirements. We call this PowderHub — a central point for all Additive Manufacturing questions, developments, discussions and solutions.
From here our engineers will develop solutions for you, ranging from procedures to handle your powder safely and effectively, PowderWare equipment designed specifically for the metal additive manufacturing industry to store and measure the powder, PowderSolve software to record all your data ensuring traceability of powder and part and world-leading testing facilities to analyse the powder and built component quality.
Used powder can be returned to LPW for testing and reconditioning, allowing you the potential to extend its life cycle. This is PowderLife — the solution built around you.
Carpenter Additive make Additive Manufacturing a reality in critical production environments. We are dedicated to giving you the best possible service with a focus on high quality metal powder products and services, adding consistency and reducing risk.
