We can create what you need

To meet your specific individual requirements, we de-

sign the chemical and physical properties of our pow-

ders, aligning various factors, such as chemical com-

position, particle size distribution and morphology.

Throughout the creative process, we will dream, plan and build

together with you. Our team will become immersed in your

ideas to help achieve our shared goals: setting new quality and

innovation standards for your product.

You can rely on our profound application knowledge

At Höganäs, we help you realize new market oppor-

tunities. With our three different scales of atomization

plants, which only differ in their capacity, we support

you from your initial idea to the lab and pilot phase,

and all the way to continuously optimized series pro-

duction.

Effciency means

moving product

innovations di-

rectly from lab to

industrial scale.

Additive manufacturing is revolutionizing the way products are

manufactured and unlocking completely new possibilities.

Customized materials from Höganäs – are consistently

high quality, from prototyping to series production.

Additive manufacturing is pushing the limits of techni-

cal feasibility. Things that were once unthinkable are

suddenly possible using this innovative technology

and our AMPERPRINT® metal powders: the develop-

ment of completely new geometric shapes, for examp-

le, extremely sturdy and ultra-lightweight components,

and individualized innovative products manufactured

for specific customers, for example, conformal cooling

channels in bulk components.

Your key advantages at a glance:

Freedom in design

Cost reduction

High flexibility

Short development cycles

When you have a product that is in demand, avoiding

bottlenecks is essential during production. With Höganäs,

upscaling is easy. Once we have developed and aligned

the chemical and physical properties of our metal powder

perfectly to your requirements, we simply ramp up the

production capacity. No lengthy upscaling processes. No

waiting time. Start an efficient production process right

away.

Easy upscaling of production volumes

We have three different scales of atomization units, with

different capacities and can simply ramp up the volumes

as soon as your demand increases. From lab scale up to

medium or industrial scale production, we can support

you properly through the various stages of your product

development.

Consistent high quality powders in scalable quantities

07

Lighter, more durable, higher performance: industries like aviation and

medical technology have increasingly stringent requirements regarding

the chemical, physical and mechanical properties of applied parts. That’s

why more and more of these components are produced using additive

manufacturing with AMPERPRINT® metal powders from Höganäs.

Our powders are the first choice for demanding high-

tech industries, including:

Aerospace

Medical technology

Automotive

Industrial engineering / Tooling

Energy

You have the idea,

we have the right

metal powder.

08

The days when additive manufacturing was only used

for rapid prototyping are over. No wonder: metal 3D

printing overcomes the design limitations of conven-

tional production methods, not only effectively, but

also with extremely high process efficiency.

New prospects for future key industries

Additive manufacturing is rapidly attracting increasing

attention in growing industries. One reason for this is

its ability to drastically shorten product development

lifecycles in markets that demand innovation. Those

aiming to cope with these forces need to be able to

quickly translate innovative ideas into profitable business

to ensure long-term success. That’s exactly what our

individualized production solutions make possible.

Tremendousinnovative potential – especially in high-tech industries

As current practices show, metal additive manufacturing is a well-developed and reliable

process. Our materials are used to produce high-performance products that have to meet

the most stringent requirements in terms of both technology and regulations. This inclu-

des safety-critical parts in the aviation industry, like turbine blades, blisks, and jet engines.

Because at 33,000 feet above ground – Quality really matters

Not only up in the sky, but also in the medical sector, reliability is a necessity. That‘s why

our powders can be used to manufacture parts like artificial knee and hip joints, cranial

implants and surgical instruments. There are countless additional fields of application.

The spectrum ranges from extremely lightweight, robust tool uses and gears to brakes,

pistons and valves, all produced using additive manufacturing.

Challenge us! We’re ready for you –

and will be delighted to work with you

to create the future.
