Good news! When theory meets application! This new platform appears to predate machine learning & AI.
"... producing a new class of ultra-high-performance metal alloys using a novel production process that doesn’t rely on melting raw materials. The company’s solid-state metallurgy technology, which simplifies development and manufacturing of next-generation alloys, was developed over many years of research ...
metal alloys can be made twice as strong as traditional metals, with 10 times faster product development, allowing companies to test, iterate, and deploy new metals into products in months instead of years. ...
starts with its customers’ material requirements and decides on a precise mixture of the powdered raw materials that every metal starts out as. From there, it uses a specialized industrial mixer ... to create a metal powder that is homogenous down to the atomic level. ...
From there, the company’s material can be solidified using traditional methods like metal injection molding, pressing, or 3D printing. The final step is sintering in a furnace. ...
“We also do a lot of work around how the metal reacts in the sintering furnace,” ... “Our materials are specifically designed to sinter at relatively low temperatures, relatively quickly, and all the way to full density.”
The advanced sintering process uses an order of magnitude less heat, saving on costs while allowing the company to forego secondary processes for quality control. It also gives ... more control over the microstructure of the final parts. ..."
