What your process engineer actually checks
Locked, traceable lot chemistry
Every lot ships with a COA documenting PSD, sphericity, flow rate, apparent density, and full chemistry — and a lot number you can trace. Aerospace and medical teams reorder 4+ times without re-qualifying.
Qualified parameters, not just powder
Validated parameter sets for EOS M 290, Renishaw 500Q, SLM 280, and our own AO Metal LPBF ship with the order. Load the profile and hit density on the first build — no parameter-development burn.
A materials engineer on the line
Questions on ferrite content, flowability, recyclate ratios, or HIP response? A materials engineer answers directly — not a contact-form bot. Most replies in under 4 hours, NDA standard.

dmt technology
The most precise DED Technology.
DMT® is Direct Metal Tooling, developed by InssTek and categorized as Direct Energy Disposition(DED) technology according to ASTM standards. Using 2 vision cameras, DMT technology analyzes and controls the height of the meltpool in real-time.
MX-Lab Function
Built-in feeder
CVM (Clogged Vibration Method) system is a new type of powder feeding system. It has impressively stable powder feed rate, semi-permanent life time and broad feeding rate range. It can feed the titanium powder from 0.03g/min to 2.0g/min with no hardware change. Also this system is applicable with gravity powder supply method and direct powder supply method with gas in DED process.
Auto Z
Automatically adjusts the distance between sample and nozzle to WOP(9mm) layer by layer during deposition.
Laser Control
Sets the appropriate laser power for the material at the desired location based on NC-Code when producing a multi material sample.

Unedited feedback from customers who reorder InssTek MX-Lab.
★★★★★
Same lot 4 times in a row. We stopped re-running parameter sweeps after the second order — density was identical to the first build.

Asked about ferrite content on a Friday. A materials engineer answered Monday morning with actual data, not a sales pitch. That's why we keep ordering.

COA matches the bottle. PSD and flow are exactly what was on the sheet — we run it on a Renishaw 500Q and it hits density on the first try.
