  • Publication number: 20170197246
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a component from an at least partially amorphous metal alloy, comprising the following steps: providing a powder from an at least partially amorphous metal alloy; producing a shaped semi-finished product from the powder in that the powder is applied in layers and the powder particles of each newly applied layer, at least at the surface of the semi-finished product to be shaped, are fused and/or melted by targeted local heat input and bond to one another as they cool again; and hot pressing the semi-finished product, wherein the hot pressing is performed at a temperature that is between the transformation temperature and the crystallisation temperature of the amorphous phase of the metal alloy, wherein a mechanical pressure is exerted onto the semi-finished product during the hot pressing and the semi-finished product is compacted during the hot pressing.

  • Publication number: 20170151609
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a component from an at least partially amorphous metal alloy, having the steps of: preparing a powder of an at least partially amorphous metal alloy, wherein the powder consists of spherical powder particles and the powder particles have a diameter of less than 125 ?m; pressing the powder into the desired shape of the component to be generated; compressing and sintering the powder by means of a heat treatment of the powder during pressing or after pressing at a temperature between the transformation temperature and the crystallisation temperature of the amorphous phase of the metal alloy, wherein the duration of the heat treatment is chosen such that the component is sintered after heat treatment and has an amorphous fraction of at least 85 percent.
