DP1932 cobalt-based spherical powder (CoCrMo)

Description of Spherical Powder on Cobalt Basis

Cobalt-based powder is a hard alloy powder that resists corrosion and oxidation and withstands high temperatures. With the addition of Cr and Mo, the WC powder can be utilised for spray welding and overlay welding. It is also applicable for biomedical purposes, such as implant connections and dental prostheses.

Applications of Spherical Powder on Cobalt Basis

1. Additive manufacturing (3D printing): Spherical CoCrMo powder is utilised in additive manufacturing or 3D printing processes to produce complex and custom medical implants such as hip and knee joints, dental implants and surgical instruments. Its strength, corrosion resistance and biocompatibility are demonstrated by standard tests.

2. Aerospace industry: Spherical CoCrMo powder is employed in the aerospace sector for the fabrication of components such as engine parts, turbines and other structural elements. It withstands high temperatures and exhibits mechanical properties and wear resistance that meet industry criteria.

3. Biomedical applications: Spherical CoCrMo powder is used in the manufacture of biomedical implants and prostheses, particularly in orthopaedic and dental fields. These implants require materials with high strength, biocompatibility and corrosion resistance, which can be achieved using CoCrMo powder.

4. Chemical industry: Spherical CoCrMo powder is applied in the chemical industry for the production of equipment such as valves, connectors, pumps and pipes. The powder resists corrosion against various chemicals, maintains stability at elevated temperatures and provides the necessary mechanical strength for these processes.

5. Oil and gas industry: Spherical CoCrMo powder is utilised in the oil and gas industry for manufacturing components that are exposed to harsh environments, for example, drill heads and downhole tools. Its wear resistance, corrosion resistance and strength satisfy the technical requirements for such applications.

6. Automotive industry: Spherical CoCrMo powder is used in the automotive sector for the production of parts that require high wear resistance and strength, such as valve seats, piston rings and fuel injector components.
