Metal Powder Works Limited ( (AU:MPW) ) has issued an announcement.
Metal Powder Works has reported that independent testing shows parts made from its DirectPowder CP Titanium Grade 2 meet all ASTM B384 structural benchmarks for titanium when produced via laser powder bed fusion, the largest additive manufacturing market. The company’s powder demonstrated mechanical properties at or above Grade 4 thresholds while maintaining Grade 2 oxygen control, and builds on earlier cold spray validation to show one feedstock can achieve structural handbook values across multiple AM processes, a capability that could strengthen MPW’s role in aerospace and defense supply chains.
The results underscore that DirectPowder can offer structural performance and chemistry control that legacy atomised and Hydride DeHydride powders have struggled to deliver consistently, while also promising lower production costs and better lot-to-lot uniformity. This combination of performance, process versatility, and economics positions MPW to seek broader qualification and specification of its titanium powders across customer programmes, including ongoing work with the University of Dayton Research Institute on structural repair applications.
The most recent analyst rating on (AU:MPW) stock is a Buy with a A$4.10 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Metal Powder Works Limited stock, see the AU:MPW Stock Forecast page.
