Multi-material Sintering

Automatic die filling machine for multi-material and near net shape sintering. 

Unlock the unlimited possibilities of binder-free sintering. 

Automatic Die Filling Machine

The Aerosint die filling machine allows to stack up to 3 powders precisely in a mold with an internal diameter of up to 100 mm / 4 inches. The powder placement is determined from a digital design defined by the user.

After uploading this file in the controlling software of the machine, the die is automatically filled layer by layer. The die filled with powder can subsequently be sintered using conventional sintering or pressure-assisted sintering methods.

This binder-free technique enables the combination of multiple materials into a multi-material blank or near net shape. This equipment can be used with metal powders, ceramic powders and combinations thereof.
