首席执行官警告“过早结论”,热原和劳斯莱斯签名NDA警告

热原发生Canada Inc. has signed a non-disclosure agreement with Rolls Royce PLC to evaluate and discuss a potential supply of metal feedstock for 3D printing components.

初步协议是在Rolls Royce在其业务中增加投资对增材制造研发的投资,以及Pyrogenesis在其衍生下的精制金属粉末生产中的投资热原添加剂

对热而发生的实质性讨论

热原发生, which is credited with the invention of the Plasma Atomization process for producing spherical metal powders, announced its first powder production system and production run in March 2017.

The Quebec-based company also began scaled up production of metal powders for 3D printing via Powder Bed Fusion (PBF). In doing so, the companyrefined the differentiation of particles为了减少浪费并扩大潜在的应用程序。

As a result of the non-disclosure agreement, PyroGenesis will now have “more substantive discussions on the production of powder for Rolls Royce,” according to P. Peter Pascali, President and CEO of PyroGenesis.

Pascali also cautioned against drawing “any premature conclusions from this announcement,” since the talks between PyroGenesis and Rolls-Royce were in their “preliminary stages.” He asserts that there is “no guarantee that anything, of any commercial value, will materialize from these efforts.”
