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.

APPLICATION EXAMPLES
Alloys, copper, steel
FUNCTIONAL PRINCIPLE
Operating the H-500 is simple and safe. After weighing the sample on the interfaced electronic, the weight is transferred to the connected PC. It is also possible to enter the weight manually via the H-500 software.
The sample is placed into the cold zone of the horizontally positioned furnace.After starting the analysis, the furnace is rotated upwards for the sample to fall into the hot zone. By adding nitrogen as carrier gas hydrogen diffuses out and is carried into a sensitive thermal conductivity cell.
The typical analysis time is about 3 to 15 minutes. Detector signals and instrument parameters are displayed during analysis. Evaluation of the signals and display of the results are done automatically; the data can be transferred to a laboratory information management system (LIMS). The H-500 requires minimum maintenance. The particle filters and chemicals which need to be maintained are easily accessible.

Unedited feedback from customers who reorder H‑500.
★★★★★
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.
