Globus Metal Powders

High-Purity Metal Powders for Additive Screen Printing

Additive Screen Printing (ASP) is an innovative additive manufacturing (AM) process that combines screen printing techniques with metal powder deposition to produce high-resolution, thin-layer metal components. ASP allows the controlled deposition of fine, uniform layers of metal powder onto a substrate, followed by sintering or post-processing to create dense, functional metal parts with precise geometries and high surface fidelity. 

This process is particularly valuable in applications requiring thin, complex features and micro-scale precision, such as electronic components, heat exchangers, sensors, and micro-mechanical devices. The quality of the metal powder is critical as particle size, shape, and purity directly affect print resolution, layer uniformity, and final part density. 

Globus Metal Powders produces ultra-clean, spherical, and flow-optimised powders that are ideally suited for ASP. Our powders provide consistent layer deposition, minimal defects, and predictable sintering behaviour, ensuring high-quality, reliable parts across every build.

ADVANTAGES OF GLOBUS POWDERS IN ASP

1. Optimised Particle Size and Morphology 

  • Fine, spherical powders enable uniform layer thickness and smooth spreading across the screen. 
  • Controlled particle size distribution reduces the risk of clogging, uneven layers, or incomplete coverage, which is critical for micro-feature resolution. 

2. Ultra-Low Oxygen and Contamination Control 

  • Oxides or impurities can cause poor sintering and weak mechanical properties. 
  • Globus powders are rigorously processed to maintain ultra-low oxygen levels, ensuring clean, dense, and defect-free parts. 

3. High Flowability for Consistent Printing 

  • Smooth powder flow supports repeatable layer deposition, critical in thin-film or micro-component manufacturing. 
  • Promotes uniform powder distribution, reducing rework and post-processing requirements. 

4. Predictable Sintering and Densification 

  • Globus powders are formulated to integrate seamlessly with post-print sintering, ensuring high-density final components. 
  • Supports mechanical stability, microstructural uniformity, and dimensional accuracy across complex geometries. 

5. Batch Consistency and Reliability 

  • All Globus powders undergo strict quality control, including particle size, morphology, chemical composition, and oxygen content. 
  • Guarantees reliable, repeatable performance, essential for high-precision electronics, aerospace, and industrial applications. 

APPLICATIONS ACROSS INDUSTRIES

ASP is particularly suited for micro-scale, high-precision manufacturing, providing unique advantages in:
  • Electronics: fine conductive tracks, micro-sensors, and heat dissipation structures. 
  • Aerospace: thin, lightweight components with precise tolerances. 
  • Medical: micro-scale implants, devices, and surgical instruments requiring high dimensional accuracy. 
  • Industrial Engineering: micro-heat exchangers, fluidic channels, and intricate mechanical assemblies. 

Globus powders ensure that each ASP application achieves high-resolution features, consistent layer deposition, and strong, dense sintered parts, supporting both prototyping and production-scale manufacturing.
