Description:

In the process of ultrasonic atomization of metal powder using the ATO technology atomizer, the raw material is fed into the pressurized atomization chamber, where an electric arc is created to melt the material. Ultrasonic vibrations are transmitted through a sonotrode to the molten metal bath, forming capillary waves that eject metal droplets with a diameter that depends on the ultrasonic frequency, surface tension, and density of the liquid metal. The droplets are ejected into a cooled stream of argon gas and rounded by surface tension into near-perfect spheres. The droplets then cool and solidify before being sorted and collected.

The ATO Lab Plus is an innovative device designed to produce high-quality metal powders for additive manufacturing applications. This atomizer can produce a wide range of reactive and non-reactive metal powders, including aluminum, copper, stainless steel, titanium, and other alloys. This makes it an incredibly versatile tool that can be used in a variety of applications across multiple industries.

Regarding ease of use, the ATO Lab Plus features an intuitive control system with a user-friendly interface and precise control over parameters. Operators can easily adjust parameters to achieve optimal powder properties for their specific needs. This ease of use makes the ATO Lab Plus an ideal tool for research and development as well as industrial-scale production. The system is also equipped with a number of safety features, including a cooling water monitoring system, automatic gas shut-off valves, and emergency stop buttons.
