Heraeus Amloy and Trumpf have started working together on the 3D printing of amorphous metals.

Their goal is to establish the printing of amorphous parts as a standard production method on the shop floor by improving process and cost efficiencies. Amorphous metals are twice as strong as steel, yet significantly lighter and more elastic. These materials exhibit isotropic behaviour, which means their properties remain identical, regardless of the direction in which the 3D printer builds up the workpiece. Heraeus has optimised its amorphous alloys for 3D printing and tailored them for use with Trumpf’s TruPrint systems.
