Amaero International Limited (ASX:3DA) has executed a binding purchase order for its 2nd atomiser, the next generation Electrode Induction Melting Inert Gas Atomiser (EIGA Premium).

The next generation atomiser is expected to produce industry-leading yields of the highest value powder that’s utilized for additive manufacturing / 3D printing components for the defence, space and aerospace industries. Moreover, the atomiser is capable of producing the highest quality, spherical powder for C-103, refractory alloys and other specialty alloys with high melting points. The atomiser projects annual capacity of 200+ tonnes of powder with yields exceeding 50% for Powder Bed Fusion (PBF) spectrum powder. The atomiser has a build time of approximately 14 months and the Company expects powder production to commence in the December quarter 2025. An initial payment will be made in the March 2024 quarter with subsequent progress payments through final commissioning.

The first atomiser has been delivered to Amaero’s Tennessee facility. Fit out for Phase I includes the production area and ancillary areas for the laboratory, powder processing, material handling and storage. Phase I also includes dedicated areas for near-net PM-HIP manufacturing and for corporate offices. Installation of the 1st atomiser will commence in February 2024. It’s expected that the atomiser will be commissioned before 30 June 2024 and that C-103 powder production will commence in the September quarter.

Upon successful installation, the Company’s next generation atomiser will be the 1st to be commissioned in the United States and only the 2nd to be commissioned in the world. With the purchase order for its 2nd atomiser, Amaero will operate the only next generation atomisers in the U.S. with annual capacity of 400+ tonnes of spherical powder and 200+ tonnes of PBF spectrum powder. Amaero will prioritize the production of C-103, refractory alloy and other high-value, specialty alloy powders that are essential to the supply chain for the additive manufacturing of mission-critical components for the defence, space, aerospace and nuclear energy sectors.

Amaero’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Hank Holland stated:

“In order to achieve the U.S.’ strategic imperative to re-shore advanced manufacturing and defence production capabilities, it’s essential that we move quickly to establish a requisite supply chain that’s domestic, agile, resilient and scalable. Amaero plays a highly strategic and enabling role. We will closely collaborate with the research and development laboratories in the defence and space sectors to insert additive manufacturing and advanced material solutions for the most demanding and mission-critical applications. And, we will collaborate with prime contractors and first-tier suppliers to assure a vibrant, responsive and dependable supply chain for current production demand.”
