ATOMISATION FOR METAL POWDERS
25th & 26th March 2010
Course Code: AMP
In November 2004 Perdac and Atomizing Systems Ltd of Sheffield UK, held the 4th very well received presentation of their Course "Atomization of Melts". To satisfy requests from industry we have developed this new course devoted entirely to Atomizing Metals for Powder Production This course provides a cohesive overview suitable for those in both the industrial and research environments, and it also acts as a concise introduction to those relatively new to the field.

The course has now been run four times and with very positive feedback from the registrants who appreciated the close focus on metal powders, the intensive nature of the course over just two days, and the up to the minute knowledge that was provided on current practice and developments. Although the background of essential theory is not ignored, the course is very much practically oriented and with the importance of economics, safety and maintenance being emphasised.
Coverage is given of all metals and also all of the atomization techniques, both in common use and developed for special applications. Please download the course leaflet for more details.
Although the course is constructed to satisfy the requirements of industrial practitioners, it is undoubtedly also useful for researchers at universities or other research establishments.
