Pushing the boundaries…

Wolfmet 3D printed tungsten has played an important part in expanding gamma and x-ray research techniques around the world. We’ve pioneered this area of additive manufacturing, working with leading institutions and universities to produce 3D printed tungsten components to intricate designs and specifications. University of Liverpool, UK Wolfmet’s 3D tungsten printed collimator contributed toward innovations in internal dosimetry as a …

3D Printed Tungsten – Previously Impossible Complex Geometries

“Attenuation properties of 3D printed tungsten are superior to the lead alternative and the opportunity for bespoke collimator design is appealing.” Gear et al. EJNMMI Physics (2019) Above are the findings of tests carried out by the Joint Department of Physics, Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust and Institute of Cancer Research. The work aimed to characterise the attenuation properties of …

3D Printed Tungsten at TCT 2018, Birmingham, UK

Showcasing at TCT 2018 – 25th- 27th Sept, Wolfmet 3D is the revolutionary additive manufacturing process provided by M&I Materials. SLM technology is combined with pure tungsten powder to produce complex components. The advantage is Wolfmet 3D can produce geometries not possible with CNC machining, which allows designers to give free rein to their imagination. Wolfmet 3D has been used …
