SSAB AM Engineering is a gas atomised low-alloyed powder for additive manufacturing of high strength engineering components. SSAB AM Engineering is in particular suited in L-PBF (Laser-Powder Bed Fusion) and Direct Energy Deposition (DED or LMD).
The spherical powder enables an optimal combination of strength, toughness and high levels of isotropy in the as-built condition.
SSAB AM Engineering is a steel grade with low CO2 emissions, available with SSAB Zero™ steel. SSAB AM Engineering is also planned for fossil-free properties (see www.ssab.com/fossilfree).
Standard particle size distribution.

DED
1) Max 5% over and under size.
Measurement of particle size distribution is according to ISO 13322-2 (Dynamic image analysis methods).
Other particle size distributions can be arranged upon agreement.
Achievable generic data in as-built parts: L-PBF
Density
Young´s Modulus
Achievable mechanical properties in as-built parts: L-PBF
1) At room temperature.
All test samples have been produced on a SLM 280 2.0 system, 30 µm layer thickness and tested in the vertical direction.
Standard package size for SSAB AM powder is 10 kg, including silica gel bag. Other package sizes are available up on agreement.
SSAB Zero™ is made of recycled steel and produced with fossil-free electricity and biogas. It has virtually no fossil carbon emissions during steel production, without mass balancing allocation of emission reduction or carbon emission offsetting. SSAB Zero™ has the same quality and properties as the traditional steel versions. More details are given in SSAB Zero™ Certificate of Carbon Emissions at www.ssab.com.
