JAS Additive Alloys

Market Leader in Small-Batch Production

Engineered specifically for Additive Manufacturing, JAS additive alloys provide consistent flowability and high packing density. We're ready to deliver small lots for prototyping and testing or tens of thousands of pounds each month for scaled manufacturing or re-sale. Either way,
JAS delivers on time, every time.

Consistency You Can Count On

Additive Manufacturing Alloys

JAS has been designing alloys for additive manufacturing since 2006. That experience has taught us a few things, first, AM is not the same as Thermal Spray. Additive powders must be pure, fully dense, highly spherical and have extraordinarily consistent morphology. If an alloy powder doesn't meet these criteria, AM can sometimes feel more like an engineered art than a science. Clients often express frustration over using a meticulously constructed printing processes only to experience inconsistent results.

Our answer: Check the powder, even the slightest deviation will skew results significantly. At JAS, we don’t deviate from spec, even with the narrowest chemistry and sizing constraints.

Superior Morphology, optimizing flow rates
High Purity, due to inert environment manufacturing
Exacting Chemical Composition
Optimal Density, for your application
Consistent Deposition
Remarkable Packing Density

With JAS, you’ll get AM Powders you can count on for consistent results

Private Label Alloys

We also have a wide variety of high-performance production alloys engineered for Additive Manufacturing.

The JAS Private Label program allows you to focus on what you do best while providing your customers a better, more holistic experience through supplying world class alloy powders.

JAS Layered Alloys
For AM

Constructed through a patented process of coating a base particle with other elements, JAS Layered Alloys are designed to specifically address challenges unique to the Additive Manufacturing process.

JAS Layered Alloys for AM exhibit exceptional mechanical properties

25% higher tensile strength at 800°C
Reduction in alloy vaporization
Controlled galvanic reaction
Reduction in oxidization

Base Particle Materials:

Metal
Ceramic
Diamond
Polymer

Outer Layers Protect Base Particle from:

Vaporization
Corrosion
Galvanization

Magnesium (Mg) for example, has both low melting and boiling points and high vapor pressure creating an impossible challenge for Additive Manufacturing. Alloys like Al12Mg17 and Al6061, which posses incredible corrosion resistant properties, have been disregarded by the AM industry. By coating Mg with layers of high melting point nanoparticles (such as Si and W) however, we can change how the alloy reacts to various AM processes. Partial melting of surface particles produces radiation heat that will melt Mg. Rapid cooling produces a finished part with a fine uniform microstructure.

Standard Alloys

JAS manufactures many of the standard alloys that are widely used in the Additive Manufacturing space. The consistency of quality in our AM powders however sets a standard in the industry.
