NEW Meltio Materials Just Launched!

The Meltio Materials range consists of materials that are extensively tested under controlled conditions with validated part properties and out-of-the-box optimized print parameters. The second launch of welding wires includes Stainless Steel 17-4PH, Tool Steel H11, Nickel 625, and Invar.

Expanding the Meltio Materials range with these four specific metals allows to dive deeper into the realm of materials, and provide parametrized welding wires for a wide range of applications as well as a few niche ones. The new materials continue to ensure the same first-time-right experience just like the first launch, with guaranteed part properties, and optimized print profiles. Furthermore, Meltio’s aim with the extended range is to cater to a broad audience, regardless of their previous experience with welding or metal additive manufacturing.

  • Meltio SS17-4PH: A martensitic precipitation-hardened stainless steel capable of achieving high hardness while offering excellent corrosion resistance. It is widely employed in the oil & gas, aerospace, energy, and defense industries. Typical applications include pump impellers, pipes, and valves.
  • Meltio TSH11: A chromium-based steel alloy, it’s one of the most commonly used tool steels, thanks to its outstanding impact toughness. H11 is widely used for hot tooling applications, in the manufacturing of dies, and in aerospace applications.
  • Meltio Ni625: A Ni-based superalloy with excellent mechanical properties at a wide range of temperatures. Among superalloys, Ni625 excels for its weldability, making it an ideal choice for cladding or repair of components working at high temperatures or requiring increased corrosion protection.

Meltio Invar: This alloy gets its name thanks to its extremely low coefficient of thermal expansion, up to about 500°C. This feature makes it an ideal choice for measuring equipment and molds for the manufacturing of composite components for aerospace use.
