PLATTSBURGH NEW YORK, February 9, 2024 - Norsk Titanium (Euronext: NTI, OTCQX:
NORSF), a global leader in additive manufacturing for aerospace-grade structural
titanium components using its patented Rapid Plasma Deposition® (RPD®)
technology, announces development of Inconel 625 for US Navy applications.
Under a contract with Bechtel Plant Machinery, Inc. (BPMI) Norsk Titanium has
adapted their industrialized RPD® process for Inconel 625. As part of the
ongoing effort, Norsk Titanium and BPMI are developing the deposition parameters
and heat treatment process needed to produce additively manufactured Inconel 625
with material properties equivalent to legacy castings and forgings.
Inconel 625 is used in US Navy applications that require high strength and
resistance to corrosion. Bechtel Plant Machinery, Inc. is developing new
manufacturing processes for Inconel 625 to deliver cost and schedule savings to
their customers as well as developing alternating sources of supply for crucial
materials.
"This initial effort is an important first step in opening the nickel superalloy
market to our additive process," said Nicholas Mayer Norsk Titanium Vice
President of Commercial. "We look forward to taking the learning from this
effort, and applying it to specific Naval applications," added Mr. Mayer.
Norsk Titanium has recently announced qualification and production milestones in
their core commercial aerospace titanium market. The addition of nickel
superalloys and maritime applications is a key part of Norsk Titanium's long
term growth strategy.
