<p class="MsoNormal">Greetings All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have a 3D Systems DMP 320 metal AM system, and am looking for alternative sources of metal powders that are compatible with the system. In particular, I am currently after AlSi10Mg powder, but will also later be after other powders.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If anyone knows of a good source for such powder, the information would be greatly appreciated.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Alternatively, if any one happens to know the powder particle size distribution for the DMP320 machines (for aluminium powder, my guess is either in the 15-45um or 20-63um range (I know the filter size on the sieve is 80 microns)), that
would be helpful too.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">All the best<o:p></o:p></p>
