IperionX Limited (IperionX) announced that it has entered into an agreement with Ohio-based aerospace additive manufacturing company Materials Resources, LLC (MRL) to qualify and demonstrate the performance of IperionX’s high-quality titanium alloy powders for additively manufactured aerospace parts under an MRL project with the U.S. Navy to test titanium flight critical metal replacement components for the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD).
IperionX has supplied MRL with titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) powders from the Company’s fully operational pilot facility in Utah, which will be used to produce flight critical components via metallic additive manufacturing to reduce production lead times and cost while achieving the demanding requirements of aerospace.
