WOT takes the next step in the development of metal powders
The new powder atomisation plant at the Chair makes it possible to adapt powder materials to specific applications, customer requirements and manufacturing process profiles. And, of course, the new plant will significantly expand our profile in basic research. Due to their versatile properties and processing options, metal powders have a wide range of technical applications, from the automotive to the electronics industry.
